# Sculptural Habitual Modules Shelter ByGG by Gabriela Gomes is a Homey Art Installation By Meghan Young | Published 2012-06-26 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/shelter-bygg References: [contemporist](http://www.contemporist.com/2012/06/25/shelter-bygg-by-gabriela-gomes/) & [shelterbygg](http://www.shelterbygg.com/) Looking at the Shelter ByGG, it might be hard to figure out whether or not it is an actual shelter as its name suggests or a sculptural art installation. In reality, it is a bit of both. Placed in a public space, the Shelter ByGG offers living quarters by way of an artistic endeavor. It invites people to take a load off by providing a double room complete with a washroom. Created by Portuguese designer Gabriela Gomes, the Shelter ByGG takes on a cloud-like form quite similar to the aptly dubbed [Cloud House](http://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mcbride-charles-ryan-cloud-house). Instead of an ethereal white, however, the Shelter ByGG takes on a bright red color that will instantly attract. It is made out of non-polluting and recycled materials. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.9/10 - Popularity: 71% | Activity: 37% | 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) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Artistic Shelters:** The trend of combining art installations and living quarters can provide disruptive innovation opportunities in the hospitality and tourism industry. - **Creative Public Spaces:** The trend of transforming public spaces into interactive and functional art installations opens up disruptive innovation opportunities in urban planning and city development. - **Sustainable Architecture:** The trend of using non-polluting and recycled materials in architectural design presents disruptive innovation opportunities in the construction and building industry. ### Who This Affects Most - **Hospitality and Tourism:** The combination of art installations and living quarters can create unique and immersive accommodations, attracting a new wave of experiential travelers. - **Urban Planning and City Development:** Transforming public spaces into interactive and functional art installations can revitalize urban areas, creating vibrant and engaging environments for residents and visitors. - **Construction and Building:** Incorporating non-polluting and recycled materials in architectural design leads to sustainable and eco-friendly construction practices, driving innovation in the industry. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Humanized Waiting Pavilions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/de-wachtkamer.md) - [Billowing Modular Art Installations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/curly-cube.md) - [Compact Shelter Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/zodiac-building.md) - [Off-Grid Mountain Shelter Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/genius-show.md) - [Pavilion-Style Art Homes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/galeria-house.md) - [Shape‑shifting Retreats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/modular-offgrid-house.md) - [Reflective Artful Calming Homes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/casa-gesso.md) - [Adaptive Backyard Studios](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/love-shack-1.md) - [All-Glass Mesmerizing Compact Homes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/beaufort-bushland-retreat.md)
