# Cleverly Absurd Objects Designer Jack Beveridge Baffles Minds with Weird Creations By Meghan Young | Published 2013-06-28 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jack-beveridge References: [itsnicethat](http://www.itsnicethat.com/articles/introducing-jack-beveridge) & [jackbeveridge](http://www.jackbeveridge.com) Jack Beveridge may have only just completed his second year at Kingston University in the United Kingdom, but that hasn't stopped him from making quite the impact in the design industry. First, he collaborated on a fun project dubbed [Children's Furniture](http://www.trendhunter.com/trends/childrens-furniture), and now his entire portfolio is making the rounds on the World Wide Web. Considering that Jack Beveridge has some treats such as a literal hairbrush made out of human hair as well as nightlights made in the form of luminescent London shop signs, it comes as no surprise this is the case. Although he is currently studying graphic design, Jack Beveridge laughs in the face of traditional outputs for creations that tickle the brain instead. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 0.5/10 - Popularity: 2% | Activity: 6% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Absurd Design:** Disruptive innovation opportunities in creating unconventional and mind-boggling products that challenge traditional design norms. - **Unconventional Materials:** Opportunities to explore using unconventional materials, such as human hair, to create unique and boundary-pushing designs. - **Playful Design:** Incorporating elements of playfulness and whimsy into design to create products that surprise and delight consumers. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Graphic Design:** Exploring new ways to incorporate unconventional design elements in graphic design projects. - **Home Decor:** Developing innovative and quirky home decor products that challenge traditional design aesthetics. - **Art and Sculpture:** Creating avant-garde art and sculpture pieces that push the boundaries of traditional artistic expression. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Chic Norm-Challenging Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wiggle-collection.md) - [Broken Bike Lock Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/people-and-places.md) - [Creature-Inspired Home Good Lines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/charles-jeffreys-loverboy.md) - [Sculptural Home Goods](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/charles-jeffrey-loverboy-2.md) - [Unique Burl-Inspired Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/don-heston-studio.md) - [Kid-Designed Sculptural Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/galerie-philia.md) - [Found Objects-Formed Art Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aldgate-gold.md) - [Artful Wooden Furniture Series](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/knowledge-of-all-dark-things.md) - [Surrealist-Inspired Tea Pots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tea-for-two-collection.md)
