Known for her intricate hand-glazing techniques, London-based artist Lubna Chowdhary collaborated with the design retailer to create this multi-dimensional sideboard piece. Whether displayed in one's cozy living area or elegant dining room space, the Lubna Chowdhary Tiled Buffet features two adjustable interior shelves that allow for versatile home storage of books, glassware accessories and other knick-knacks. The practical furniture piece features a solid wood frame construction and smokey finish that is accented with ceramic tile elements. The geometric 3D tiles are hand-painted and glazed by the artist who creates a sculptural home accessory that appeals to the modern design lover with a keen eye for quality and craftsmanship. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.2/10 - Popularity: 85% | Activity: 62% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: 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) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Textured Furniture:** Incorporating textures and patterns into furniture design is a growing trend that appeals to modern design lovers and opens new avenues for artists and designers to showcase their talent. - **Multi-dimensional Design:** The use of multi-dimensional design in furniture pieces such as Lubna Chowdhary Tiled Buffet creates a unique aesthetic appeal and an opportunity for designers to create functional yet visually appealing home accessories. - **Handcrafted Furniture:** There is a growing demand for handcrafted furniture that appeals to the natural, rustic aesthetic and presents an opportunity for artists to showcase their craftsmanship and create functional pieces with unique textures and finishes. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Furniture and Home Decor:** The furniture and home decor industry can benefit from integrating textured furniture design, multi-dimensional design, and handcrafted pieces to appeal to customers who value quality and craftsmanship. - **Art and Design:** The art and design industry can benefit from collaborating with furniture and home decor manufacturers to create unique pieces that showcase the artist's talent while appealing to a wider audience. - **Craftsmanship Industry:** The craftsmanship industry can diversify its offerings by collaborating with furniture and home decor manufacturers to create unique pieces that showcase their ability to work with different textures, finishes, and materials. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Textured Modern Furniture Lines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/touch-collections.md) - [Textured Oak Sideboards](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nick-james.md) - [Curvaceous Storage-Packed Sideboards](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/embrace-sideboard.md) - [Puzzling Geometric Side Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/linked-side-table.md) - [Offset Shelf Sideboards](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/crazy-slice-sideboard-concept.md) - [Glass Geometry Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/glass-collection.md) - [Tropical Island-Inspired Cabinets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/weaver-cabinet.md) - [Unique Burl-Inspired Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/don-heston-studio.md) - [Ancient Practice-Inspired Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bidri-furniture.md)
