As its name states, it has an [organic aesthetic](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/roots-collection-1) that makes it appear almost like [floating lily pads](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nelumbo) or vine-like foliage found in exotic jungles. Comprised of different-sized shelves, it adds a dynamic element to living spaces. Designed by Lesha Galkin, a co-founder of Dopludo Collective, which is based in Saint Petersburg, Russia, the Nenuphar Organic Shelving is made out of [wood and steel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pli-steel-wall-shelf). Its graceful curves and delicate lines lends it a femininity that makes it particularly perfect for contemporary homes and offices looking for a subtle woman's touch. Comprised of seven tiers, the Nenuphar Organic Shelving is capable of holding a lot of items. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.2/10 - Popularity: 38% | Activity: 20% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, 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 ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Organic Shelving:** There is room for innovation in the development of organic shelving designs that incorporate natural elements and curves. - **Dynamic Shelving:** Designers can create shelving units that add visual interest to living spaces by incorporating varied sizes and shapes of shelves. - **Feminine Shelving:** There is an opportunity to cater to a target market that is searching for shelving units with a subtle, feminine touch. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Furniture Industry:** Furniture companies can explore new designs for shelving units that incorporate organic and dynamic elements. - **Interior Decorating Industry:** Interior professionals can suggest unique shelving units to clients that enhance the style and feel of living spaces. - **E-commerce Industry:** Online home decor retailers have the chance to specialize in unique, feminine shelving for contemporary homes and offices. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Progressive Storage Shelving Systems](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ledoux-prt-collection.md) - [Abstract Jigsaw-Like Shelving](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/spectator-shelf.md) - [Dynamic Storage-Display Shelves](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/shelf-life.md) - [Handle-Equipped Planter Shelves](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/minimalist-plant-shelf.md) - [Modular Organized Shelving Systems](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/unit-shelving-system.md) - [Customizable Style-Conscious Shelving](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ledoux-modular-shelf-system.md) - [Sculptural Bookshelves Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sculptural-bookshelf.md) - [Modular Contemporary Shelving Systems](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/qurv.md) - [Clock-Accented Shelf Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/omega-shelf.md)
