# Stopper-Like Stools The Plug Table by Savage Works is Playful and Minimalist By Meghan Young | Published 2013-08-14 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/plug-table References: [contemporist](http://www.contemporist.com/2013/08/13/plug-table-by-savage-works/) & [savage-works](http://savage-works.com/) The Plug Table boasts a playful design that will bring to mind another object, albeit a larger version of that object. Complete with a braided rope handle, the Plug Table could easily belong to a giant of some sort. Granted, the design takes on a minimalist aesthetic that doesn't make the connection so obvious. Instead, it can fit into just about any living space without making too much of a fuss. Designed by Scott Savage of Savage Works, a studio based in Brooklyn, New York, the Plug Table is made out of hardwood maple or glass-reinforced Polyester and can come in three versions: blue, white and natural wood. The cords are available in different hues as well for a fun touch. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.0/10 - Popularity: 20% | Activity: 33% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## 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 - **Playful Furniture Design:** Disruptive innovation opportunities exist to create furniture designs that incorporate whimsical and playful elements. - **Minimalist Aesthetics:** Opportunities for disruptive innovation can be found by developing minimalist furniture designs that seamlessly blend into various living spaces. - **Multi-functional Furniture:** Innovative ideas can be explored to create furniture pieces that serve multiple purposes, providing practicality and space-saving solutions. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Furniture Manufacturing:** Disruptive innovation opportunities lie within the furniture manufacturing industry to create unique and visually engaging designs that cater to modern consumers. - **Interior Design:** Opportunities for disruptive innovation exist in the interior design industry to incorporate unconventional and playful furniture designs into various living spaces. - **Home Decor and Furnishings:** The home decor and furnishings industry can benefit from disruptive innovation by introducing minimalist and multi-functional furniture designs that meet the evolving needs of consumers. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Curvaceous Abstract Side Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pet-table.md) - [Tech-Friendly Side Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nendo-twins-side-table.md) - [Geometric Cutout Side Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/designated-table.md) - [Playful Accent Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bug-table.md) - [Multipurpose Adaptable Office Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-pluralis.md) - [Sustainable Colorful Multifunctional Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/superpop.md) - [Natural Rock-Imitating Extension Cords](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/power-gem.md) - [Whimsical Utility Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/roach-clip-side-table.md) - [Contemporary Rocking Pouffe Stools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/platero.md)
