This is due in large part to its tabletop, which is made out of a [clear and colorful acrylic material](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/draga-aurel). Granted, how much color is boasts is solely up to the owner him- or herself as the top can be changed to suit people's individual tastes or even moods. With a slim all-white base and transparent top, Minis by Peter Johansen has a lightweight and airy aesthetic many will appreciate, especially those people living in [small spaces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wallmounted-cafe-table). The talented designer writes, "I have chosen transparent acrylic because I think it is beautiful to see how the table is constructed." ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.7/10 - Popularity: 27% | Activity: 16% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: Europe ## 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 - **Customizable Acrylic Tables:** Opportunity for furniture companies to offer personalized designs and colors for customers. - **Minimalist Furniture Design:** Potential for designers to create more simple and lightweight furniture for small space living. - **Translucent Furniture Materials:** Opportunity for manufacturers to experiment with materials such as acrylic to create unique and visually appealing furniture pieces. ### Who This Affects Most - **Furniture Manufacturing:** Potential for furniture companies to incorporate acrylic and other translucent materials into their designs. - **Interior Design:** Opportunity for interior designers to recommend and incorporate minimalist and customizable furniture designs into their projects. - **Product Design:** Potential for designers to experiment with translucent and customizable materials to create unique furniture pieces for consumers. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Geometric Glass Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/soda-iced-table.md) - [Candy-Like Glossy Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/luis-gimeno.md) - [Colorful Contemporary Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/runda-tables.md) - [Sustainable Colorful Multifunctional Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/superpop.md) - [Juxtaposing Material Dining Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/compression-dining-table.md) - [Candy-Inspired Cylindrical Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/candy-table.md) - [Vibrant Mid-Century Modern Miniatures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vibrant-midcentury-modern.md) - [Cloud-Inspired Furniture Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cloud-tables1.md) - [Crystalline Acrylic Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/draga-aurel-flare-collection.md)
