The kits in Peach, Mint and Black and White boast different geometric designs and offer easy-to-assemble forms for DIY kite creation. To simplify the assembly process, the paper and bamboo kite kit includes peel-and-stick strips that reduce messes. Also for the sake of tidiness, the components of the kit have the ability to be neatly tucked away into a cardboard carrying case for storage and packaging. To bring its DIY kite kits to the masses, TAIT Design Co. is currently running a crowdfunding campaign on the Kickstarter platform. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.2/10 - Popularity: 8% | Activity: 49% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **DIY Kite Making:** 'Kaku Dako' provides an accessible and convenient way for consumers to build their own kites, which could disrupt the traditional kite-making industry. - **Eco-friendly Crafting:** The use of bamboo and paper materials in 'Kaku Dako' aligns with the trend of environmentally conscious crafting, creating opportunities for sustainable practices in the crafting industry. - **Crowdfunding Campaigns:** As seen with TAIT Design Co., crowdfunding campaigns offer a unique opportunity for businesses to obtain funding and generate buzz for their products. ### Who This Affects Most - **Crafting:** The use of innovative materials and designs in 'Kaku Dako' may introduce new opportunities for businesses in the crafting industry, especially those looking to cater to eco-conscious audiences. - **Toy and Game Retail:** With a growing interest in DIY activities, toy and game retailers could introduce DIY kits like 'Kaku Dako' to encourage hands-on creativity amongst consumers. - **Packaging:** The cardboard carrying case used in 'Kaku Dako' offers an efficient and eco-friendly way to store and ship products, potentially disrupting traditional packaging methods in various industries. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Tape Crafting Kits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nano-tape.md) - [Sustainable Bamboo-Crafted Drones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bamboo-drone.md) - [Kid-Friendly Birdhouse Kits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kidfriendly-birdhouse-kit.md) - [Parachute Delivery Systems](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kirigami-parachute.md) - [DIY Wooden Watchmaking Sets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tfo-clockwork.md) - [Pneumatic Robotics Kits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pneumatic-robot-design-kit.md) - [Playful DIY Incense Holders](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/incense-holder-kit.md) - [Kitchen-Focused Mending Kits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/poj-studio.md) - [Demon Slayer Paint kit](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/Demon-Slayer-Paint-Kit.md)
