# Marvelous Math Tools Philip de Los Reyes Creates a Highly Stylized Geometry Set By Christopher DeLuca | Published 2011-08-03 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/philip-de-los-reyes References: [core77](http://www.core77.com/blog/tools/philip_de_los_reyes_drafting_tools_look_too_nice_to_use_20076.asp) & [adlr.info](http://adlr.info/ih/) Philip de Los Reyes has created some of the very best [math tools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/design-calculators) that I have had the privilege of seeing. The designer's [geometry tools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/shinwa) are highly stylized and created for the person with a [minimalistic aesthetic](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/woset) bend. I think that if I had these tools when I was taking geometry in high school, I probably would have found math a whole lot more interesting. Philip de Los Reyes is a brilliant designer who has created a very visually compelling set. This set would make an excellent gift. **Implications** - Youth consumers are attracted to a minimal and clean visual aesthetic. This stems from an over-appropriation of the cultural symbols over the past decade. Companies should take this mindset into account when pitching products to this demographic. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 0.5/10 - Popularity: 3% | Activity: 3% | 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) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Minimalist Math Tools:** Designing math tools with a minimalist aesthetic can attract younger consumers who appreciate clean visuals. - **Stylized School Supplies:** Personalizing school supplies like geometry sets can make them more attractive and engaging for students. - **Design-focused Educational Products:** Educational products with an emphasis on design can enhance the learning experience and attract consumers seeking unique and visually appealing items. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Educational Supplies:** Creating design-focused educational supplies like geometry sets can offer a unique selling point and attract younger consumers. - **Stationery:** Personalizing stationery items like geometry sets with unique and stylish designs can create more interest and engagement among consumers looking for distinct products. - **Design Services:** Offering design services for educational products like math tools can help companies appeal to consumers seeking visually appealing and innovative items. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Multifunctional Angular Desktop Rulers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hexagonal-ruler-set.md) - [Premium Measuring Tools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-measure-collection.md) - [Geometric Dynamic Stationary](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hexagonal-ruler.md) - [Geometrically Inspired Faucets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fantini-oxy.md) - [Compact Precise Sketching Tools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/horizon-helvetica.md) - [Curvaceous Analog Designer Rulers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rulerc-concept.md) - [Ultra-Slick Functional Home Accessories](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/functional-home-accessories.md) - [Organized Minimal Pen Holders](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stilo75-pen-holder.md) - [Sculptural Writing Tools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/experimental-pencils.md)
