Her new studio is based in Bergen, Norway and the current offerings include an angular red table, a beautifully [curved wooden chair](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/collective-collection), an abstract lighting piece and more. Studio Cecilia Xinyu Zhang's sculptural furniture collection carries a minimalist aesthetic that successfully ties into the understanding of a contemporary home interior. In particular, the Equant Suspension Lamp offers a curious twist to the space it is installed in. The lighting fixture is LED-dependent and boasts an "adjustable circular deflector [...], a black metal disc that holds the deflector in place" and a strong circular silhouette that unifies everything. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.0/10 - Popularity: 94% | Activity: 78% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: Europe ## 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 - **Minimal Sculptural Furniture:** Opportunity for designers to explore innovative and abstract forms in furniture design. - **Contemporary Home Interior:** Opportunity to create furniture that complements minimalist and modern home aesthetics. - **Led-dependent Lighting Fixtures:** Opportunity to develop adjustable and visually striking lighting designs using LED technology. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Furniture Design:** Opportunity for furniture designers to create sculptural pieces that merge art and functionality. - **Interior Design:** Opportunity for interior designers to incorporate minimal sculptural furniture collections to create visually striking spaces. - **Lighting Design:** Opportunity for lighting designers to push boundaries in design by creating LED-dependent fixtures with unique and adjustable features. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Simplistic Line-Formed Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sculptures-furniture.md) - [Bold Sculptural Furniture Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/orbit-and-axis.md) - [Wire-Accented Furniture Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/line-series-furniture.md) - [Sculptural Lighting Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/unform-studios.md) - [Sculptural Furniture Lines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/unform-studio.md) - [Ultra-Chic Sculptural Lighting Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sculptural-lighting-design.md) - [Expressive Well Balanced Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hmli.md) - [Ultra-Chic Minimalist Seating Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/minimalist-seating-design.md) - [Minimally Elegant Furniture Series](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/connexion-collection.md)
