Perhaps the most cutting edge facet of this renovation is the fact that it was crowd-funded. "Through buying a share, the public could not only participate in the refurbishment but could also become a permanent part of that refurbishment," say the architects of community support. Each donor was compensated with having their name displayed on a glass installation by the bar. With the prominence of [Kickstarter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nitro-infuser), it is refreshing to see that tendency of crowd-sourced funding of the arts and their venues are gaining momentum. Along with philanthropic aspect, the space boasts a [modern industrial interior](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/1960s-warehouse) that makes the Paard van Troje remodel quite outstanding. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.6/10 - Popularity: 25% | Activity: 16% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Architecture](https://www.trendhunter.com/architecture) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Crowd-funded Venues:** Crowd-sourced funding of the arts and their venues are gaining momentum - **Industrial Interior Design:** Modern industrial interior design is becoming more prominent in renovated spaces - **Community-supported Architecture:** Community support is becoming a more prevalent factor in architectural projects ### Sectors Adopting This - **Architecture/design:** There are opportunities for architecture and design firms to incorporate community involvement and modern industrial designs - **Arts/entertainment:** Arts and entertainment venues can utilize crowd-sourced funding to engage with their community and modernize their interior design - **Crowdfunding Platforms:** Opportunities for crowdfunding platforms to expand into arts and entertainment projects with community-supported architecture ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Restored British Music Venues](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sheppard-robson.md) - [Archival Performance Spaces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/take-a-bow-centre.md) - [Rink-Turned Creative Hubs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/colorado-college-honnen-arts-hub.md) - [Music Industry Creative Offices](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/22re.md) - [Vibrant Museum Foyer Renovations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/museum-foyer.md) - [Repurposed Imperfection-Embraced Buildings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/civic-architects-and-vdndp.md) - [Redeveloped Industrial Cafés](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ironworks-caf.md) - [Industrial-Inspired Homes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/glassbrick-apartment.md) - [Renovated Neo-Gothic Provostry](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/provostry.md)
