# Webbed Beach Art Oak Beach by NeSpoon Uses Doilies to Beautify the Oceanscape By Vittoria Natarelli | Published 2010-07-29 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oak-beach-by-nespoon References: [designyoutrust](http://designyoutrust.com/2010/07/28/oak-beach-street-art-for-holidaymakers/) & [behance.net](http://www.behance.net/gallery/Oak-Beach/599056) Oak Beach by NeSpoon is a beautiful enhancement to an already gorgeous beach. The artist spray-painted installations throughout the beach, and each piece was created using a doily as a stencil. Some pieces were spray painted onto wood, while others were hanging creations. NeSpoon created a museum on the beach with his art. There's no doubt that Oak Beach by NeSpoon would be a wonderful tourist destination. **Implications** - The eco-movement has transcended niche groups and informs the values of a large cross-section of society. This group has a strong desire to reconnect to the natural environment that it cherishes. Companies that offer experiences to reconnect to nature will be able to create a lasting connection to their brand. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.1/10 - Popularity: 50% | Activity: 6% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, 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 Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Beach Artisanal Revival:** There is an opportunity for artists and makers to create unique pieces that celebrate the natural environment through beach art, using traditional techniques and materials. - **Eco-friendly Public Art:** Public artwork that uses sustainable and non-toxic materials, like doilies, to promote environmental awareness and beautify urban spaces will appeal to today's eco-conscious consumers. - **Nature Reconnection Experiences:** As people become more disconnected from the natural world, there is a growing market for experiences like visiting beach art installations that help people re-establish a relationship with nature and appreciate its beauty. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Art and Design:** Artists and designers can expand their offerings to include beach art installations using sustainable materials like doilies, as a way to attract environmentally conscious clients. - **Tourism and Hospitality:** Hotel chains, resorts, and local tourism boards can partner with artists and makers to create unique beach art installations, encouraging tourists to visit areas and engage with the local environment. - **Environmental Education:** Environmental education programs can incorporate beach art installations into their curriculum, as a hands-on, community-based approach to teach and inspire people about the beauty and importance of the natural world. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Interactive Marine Ecosystem Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/marine-ecosystem-sculptures.md) - [Creative Sun Safety Installations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sun-safety-installation.md) - [Towering Reclaimed Wooden Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/louise-durham.md) - [Sophisticated Upcycled Home Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/basket-sculptures.md) - [Science-Backed Wooden Installations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/seed-stories.md) - [Mangrove Forest-Inspired Installations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/once-upon-a-forest.md) - [Mask-Made Art Installations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tidal-stories.md) - [Sprouting Chair Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wood-chair-on-grass.md) - [Nature-Reconnecting Art Installations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/highwood-installation.md)
