He has used elements from Pokémon and stylized them very effectively along the outer rim of the plates. Unfortunately these plate designs are just that -- designs. They are only concepts at this point. Olly Moss is a prolific artist who is known for his re-imagining of movie posters. He normally has a very minimalist style, so it's nice to see him branch out with these intricately put together plate designs. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.0/10 - Popularity: 83% | Activity: 89% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Gamer-designed Dinnerware:** Gamer-inspired plate designs offer disruptive innovation opportunities in the home decor industry. - **Game Sequence Scenes:** Incorporating vintage 8-bit graphic design into products presents disruptive innovation opportunities in the gaming industry. - **Original Border Work:** Using stylized elements from popular franchises in product design opens up disruptive innovation opportunities in the fan merchandise industry. ### Where This Applies - **Home Decor:** The home decor industry can explore unique and niche products such as gamer-designed dinnerware to cater to specific target markets. - **Gaming:** The gaming industry can capitalize on incorporating nostalgic elements like game sequence scenes to create a sense of nostalgia and appeal to retro gaming enthusiasts. - **Fan Merchandise:** The fan merchandise industry can tap into the demand for original border work inspired by popular franchises to create collectible and unique products for fans. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Elevated Anime-Inspired Home Decor](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nendo-pokmon-mosaic-collection.md) - [Monster-Themed Kitchenware](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/le-creuset-pokmon-collection.md) - [Recreated Video Game Meals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/playstation-to-plate.md) - [Anime-Themed Meal Kits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oisix-x-pokmon-meal-kits.md) - [Interactive Mealtime Plates](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/platoo-interactive-sensory-meal-plate.md) - [Elegant Anime Decor Furnishings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pokmon-pottery-barn-kids-collection.md) - [Whimsical Anime Decor Lines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pottery-barn-kids-2.md) - [Anime-Themed Home Decor Items](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pokemon-and-karimoku.md) - [PB&J-Inspired Sandwich Plates](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pbj-inspired-sandwich-plates.md)
