# Geeky Gamer Furniture The Playstation Controller Table by Mark M is for Video Game Fanatics By Meghan Young | Published 2010-08-23 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/playstation-controller-table References: [neatorama](http://www.neatorama.com/2010/08/23/playstation-controller-coffee-table/) & [overclockers.au](http://www.overclockers.com.au/news.php?id=897930) I can only imagine the tacky [bachelor pad](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bug-table) that the [Playstation Controller](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sony-game-controller) Table would grace its presence in. Of course, as a former 'gamer' myself, I can't help but wish my tastes ran in a slightly different direction in order to accommodate this [devotional furniture piece](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ikea-australia-1). Designed by Australian student Mark M., this piece is made out of plywood, MDF and veneer on veneer. Recreating the controller in such a large scale, Mark M definitely proves his skills as a designer. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.3/10 - Popularity: 94% | Activity: 86% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## 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 - **Gaming-related Furniture:** Create furniture pieces inspired by video game consoles and controllers to cater to the growing market of avid gamers. - **Geek Culture Home Decor:** Design and produce home decor items that pay homage to geek culture, tapping into the nostalgia and fandom of consumers. - **Interactive Gaming Accessories:** Develop interactive accessories that enhance the gaming experience, merging furniture design with technology for a unique and immersive gameplay. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Furniture Manufacturing:** Explore opportunities to incorporate gaming-inspired designs into furniture manufacturing, targeting gamers who seek unique and customized pieces. - **Home Decor:** Collaborate with artists and designers to create geek culture-themed home decor products, appealing to fans of video games and other geek-related media. - **Gaming Accessories:** Partner with gaming companies to co-create innovative and interactive gaming accessories, creating a new market segment within the gaming industry. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Video Game-Inspired Side Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pac-man-side-table.md) - [Supportive Gamer Cushions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/large-cushion-table-bht700c.md) - [Organized Gaming Storage Cabinets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bauhutte.md) - [Winter-Ready Gaming Setups](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kotatsu-futon-bhk2500kf.md) - [Intergalactic Gamer Chair Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/starfield-x-tempur-dream-chair.md) - [Connected Gamer Desk Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/toughdesk-350-smart-gaming-desk.md) - [Subtly Smart Dining Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/etto-table.md) - [Contoured Gaming Console Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/playstation-5-console-concept.md) - [Ergonomic Customization Gaming Controllers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/customizable-gaming-controller.md)
