# Crater Cupboards The Neapolitan Sideboard by John Galvin By Meghan Young | Published 2010-03-16 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/neapolitan-sideboard References: [contemporist](http://www.contemporist.com/2010/03/16/neapolitan-sideboard-by-john-galvin/) & [johngalvindesign](http://www.johngalvindesign.com/) If you're looking to add some [natural furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/riva-collection) into your home but you don't want that typical rustic look seen everywhere of late, then take a look at the Neapolitan Sideboard. Sleek and unique, it adds that organic accent without being overtly outdoorsy. Designed by John Galvin, the Neapolitan Sideboard actually looks more futuristic than anything else. Those [crater-like indents](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/topographic-coffee-table) create a dynamic surface that clashes interestingly with the [polished wood look](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/irish-furniture-design). ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.8/10 - Popularity: 80% | Activity: 57% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## 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 - **Organic Furniture:** Create furniture designs that incorporate natural elements in a sleek and modern way. - **Dynamic Surfaces:** Incorporate unique and textured surfaces into furniture designs to create visual interest and a futuristic aesthetic. - **Non-rustic Home Decor:** Explore alternative design styles that incorporate natural accents without the typical rustic look. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Furniture Design:** The furniture design industry can capitalize on the trend of creating sleek and unique furniture designs that incorporate organic accents. - **Interior Design:** Interior designers can utilize dynamic surfaces in their designs to add visual interest and create a modern, futuristic aesthetic for their clients. - **Home Decor:** The home decor industry can offer non-rustic design options to appeal to consumers looking for a more modern and unique aesthetic for their homes. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Textured Oak Sideboards](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nick-james.md) - [Curvaceous Storage-Packed Sideboards](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/embrace-sideboard.md) - [Offset Shelf Sideboards](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/crazy-slice-sideboard-concept.md) - [Curved Base Plywood Sideboards](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-embrace-sideboard.md) - [Luxe Grooved Versatile Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cesar.md) - [Twisted Wooden Boxed Sideboard](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/deniz-aktay.md) - [Redefined Modern Sideboard Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tacito-sideboard.md) - [Anthropomorphic Design Dining Sets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sideboard-dining-table.md) - [Unique Burl-Inspired Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/don-heston-studio.md)
