It balances its inner chromatic self with a [black exterior](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/le-creuset-nuit). That way, it can be playful and sophisticated at the same time. Designed by civil engineer Herbert Krenchel back in 1953, the Krenit Bowl has been re-released to the delight of many. A slew of manufacturers have begun to revisit past designs in order to nostalgically entice new and returning customers. The Krenit Bowl was originally made with an enamel interior in [eight colors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/le-creuset-rainbow-mug-set) and nine sizes. It is now now produced in steel with a melamine interior in five colors including white, black, turquoise, purple, lime and red. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.2/10 - Popularity: 19% | Activity: 10% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - 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 Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Past Design Revival:** Manufacturers are revisiting past designs to incite nostalgia and attract new and returning customers, creating opportunities for disruptive innovation. - **Chromatic Kitchenware:** Kitchenware is taking on a splash of color to add playfulness while maintaining sophistication, creating opportunities for disruptive innovation. - **Multifunctional Design:** Designs that balance function with aesthetics are becoming increasingly popular, creating opportunities for disruptive innovation. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Home Goods:** Home goods retailers are experimenting with past design revivals and chromatic kitchenware to capture customer interest and increase sales. - **Kitchen Supplies:** Kitchenware manufacturers are developing multifunctional designs that incorporate color schemes to set themselves apart and attract customers. - **Interior Design:** Interior designers are seeking creative and innovative pieces to incorporate into their designs, leading to opportunities within the color and multifunctional design trends. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Vibrantly Colorful Dinnerware](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hellerware.md) - [Artful Cast-Metal Bowls](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/curling-bowl.md) - [Vibrantly Designed Playful Tableware](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hem.md) - [Macaroni-Inspired Tonal Dinnerware](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kraft-dinnerware.md) - [Display-Centric Dynamic Fruit Bowls](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/circuit.md) - [Macaroni-Colored Kitchenware](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kraft-dinnerware-collection.md) - [Miniature Colorful Rice Cookers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bowld-mini-rice-cooker.md) - [Sunning High-Design Cookware](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/after-crate-barrel-and-caraway.md) - [Imperfect Pasta Bowl Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pasta-bowl.md)
