It is a [multi-functional piece](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/balloon-dog) that is partially an art object and a functional lamp all at once. The name is entitled KOU due to its sturdy construction of solid aluminum. It is complete in two tonal options of either a black base foundation with an aluminum top or an aluminum base with a black top. The KOU measures out to be 25 x 10 x 10 cm and it is carefully packed in a bespoke wooden box with 18 units in total. Case Studyo speaks about the sculpture -- “being both [sculpture and lighting object](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/leda), this edition is the perfect example of Delta introducing his constructed reality into the realm of everyday life. More than a mere object, KOU is a companion, a beacon of light emanating tranquility, assisting you in balancing shadow and light.” Image Credit: Casse Studyo ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.4/10 - Popularity: 72% | Activity: 52% | Freshness: 9% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Africa ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Multi-functional Art Objects:** Combining different functions and forms in one piece presents an opportunity to disrupt traditional art and home decor industries. - **Integration of Technology in Design:** Incorporating technology in artistic creations provides a chance to innovate and create unique experiences for consumers. - **Sustainability in Art and Home Decor:** Emphasizing the use of eco-friendly materials in art and home decor manufacturing can generate a competitive advantage in the industry. ### Where This Applies - **Art:** Exploring multi-functional art objects can help artists and art companies stand out and offer unique experiences to consumers. - **Home Decor:** Integrating technology in home decor products can create new and innovative product lines that attract tech-savvy consumers. - **Manufacturing:** Focusing on sustainability in the manufacturing process for art and home decor can appeal to conscious consumers and minimize negative impact on the environment. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Wooden Light-Hearted Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dream-sculpture.md) - [Ultra-Chic Sculptural Lighting Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sculptural-lighting-design.md) - [Striking Sculptural Candles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sculpture-candle.md) - [Sculptural Glass Lamps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tuloa.md) - [Customizable Minimal Lamps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-delta-lamp.md) - [Modern Dynamic Structural Lamps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/horizon-table-light.md) - [Emotional Light Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/miror-collection.md) - [Sculptural Geometry Lamps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/polyshape-lamp.md) - [Sculptural 3d-Printed Lighting](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/souffl-lamp.md)
