# Prefab Architecture Baubles Marmol Radziner Jewelry Brings Jewels and Prefab Homes Together By Robyn Currie | Published 2010-03-27 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/marmol-radziner-jewelry References: [luxist](http://www.luxist.com/2010/03/26/prefab-architecture-firm-gets-into-jewelry-making/) & [marmolradzinerprefab](http://www.marmolradzinerprefab.com/blog/2009/12/) I never really thought that a prefab home manufacturing firm could branch out into the [jewelry business](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/boutique-jewelry-concept)--let alone do it successfully--but Marmol Radziner jewelry has done just that. Expanding from their booming [design and construction firm](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kalevala), they are taking over with their [streamlined, almost architectural looking pieces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/couleur-vivante). Marmol Radziner jewelry is made out of bronze, with the finish changing over time depending on the wearer. **Implications** - Among some businesses there exists a common misconception that intricate designs are far superior to simpler ones. However, many successful products that favor simple, clean lines and high-quality materials can be perceived as just as valuable and well-designed as those that have more going on visually. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.2/10 - Popularity: 42% | Activity: 77% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Jewelry](https://www.trendhunter.com/jewelry) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Prefab Jewelry:** Merging architectural design and jewelry to create wearable prefab art. - **Streamlined Pieces:** Designing products with clean, simplistic lines and high-quality materials. - **Changing Finishes:** Creating jewelry with finishes that change over time with the wearer. ### Who This Affects Most - **Jewelry:** Opportunity for jewelry companies to innovate and experiment with unusual materials and design principles. - **Architecture:** Opportunity for architecture firms to think about how they can work with other industries to create interesting, hybrid products. - **Manufacturing:** Opportunity for manufacturers to apply the prefab principle to new and unusual products. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Geometric Jewelry Architecture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nikos-koulis-boutique.md) - [Jewelry-Inspired Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/through-chrome-reflections.md) - [Lifestyle-Imbued Jewelry Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/buccellati.md) - [Apparel Brand Category Expansions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ref-jewelry.md) - [Stunning Organic-Inspired Jewelry Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/organicinspired-jewelry.md) - [Flexible Fine Jewelry](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mattia-cielo.md) - [Minimalist Jewelry Brands](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/barebone.md) - [Dynamic Organic Store Displays](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/la-manso.md) - [Consciously Cool Jewelry](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-art-of-adornment.md)
