# Piano-Shaped Dressing Tables Marly Gommans 'Dressed Wood' is a Perfect Place to Primp By Marissa Brassfield | Published 2010-04-11 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/marly-gommans-dressed-wood References: [behance.net](http://www.behance.net/Gallery/Marly-Gommans-Dressed-Wood/479338) & [marlygommans.nl](http://marlygommans.nl/home/index.php?/dressed/furniture/) I've dreamed of having my own cute place to primp, and this Marly Gommans 'Dressed Wood' design is a great option. Its rectangular aesthetics remind me of an [upright piano](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/piano-washbasin), only instead of piano keys, there's a flat surface for all of your makeup and brushes. And instead of the upright back, there is a [mirror](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/drought). Excellent! See more images of Marly Gommans' 'Dressed Wood' table and bench above. I hope this one goes into production! **Implications** - Dressed Wood furniture derives its inspiration from the intricate world of fashion design. I think it is particularly interesting how leather and [ash wood](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/irish-furniture-design) were combined into one pieces; the contrast between these materials really makes these dressing tables stand out. These are bold pieces that I would certainly love to have in my home. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.3/10 - Popularity: 27% | Activity: 33% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: 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 - **Fashion-inspired Furniture:** The combination of materials used in Marly Gommans' 'Dressed Wood' dressing tables provides an opportunity to create fashion-inspired furniture pieces. - **Rectangular Aesthetics:** The rectangular aesthetics of Marly Gommans' 'Dressed Wood' tables provide an opportunity to create unique furniture with a similar shape. - **Upright Designs:** The upright design of Marly Gommans' 'Dressed Wood' tables, similar to an upright piano, provides an opportunity to create furniture inspired by instruments. ### Who This Affects Most - **Furniture Manufacturing:** The fashion-inspired design of Marly Gommans' 'Dressed Wood' tables provides an opportunity for furniture manufacturing companies to branch out into new product lines. - **Interior Design:** The unique shape and design of Marly Gommans' 'Dressed Wood' tables provide an opportunity for interior designers to create one-of-a-kind spaces. - **Instruments Manufacturing:** The upright design of Marly Gommans' 'Dressed Wood' tables provides an opportunity for instrument manufacturing companies to diversify their product offerings. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Jewelry-Inspired Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/through-chrome-reflections.md) - [Cabinet-Concealed Modern Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/obelisk-3.md) - [Modern Customizable Table Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/customizable-table-design.md) - [Curvaceous Bench-Style Coffee Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/shell-table.md) - [Versatile Curvaceous Side Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/proust.md) - [Ergonomic Multi-Use Desk Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kabinett-desk.md) - [Stylish Oakwood Storage Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/moose-cabinet.md) - [Unique Burl-Inspired Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/don-heston-studio.md) - [Curvaceous Storage-Packed Sideboards](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/embrace-sideboard.md)
