The table was made from a [piece of marble](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fels-coffee-table) from Anguilla that resembles the rocky terrain that can be seen in areas of the Caribbean Sea, while a piece of colored resin gives the appearance of ocean blue water. When turned on via its accompanying remote, the Starry Sea illuminates in various parts from within -- offering an [ethereal glow](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lumera) that has colors that can be changed using the remote. The table also has an app that can be used to control the LED and Wi-Fi system it features without having to use the remote. This mystical table offers the perfect fusion of [nature-themed artwork and integrated technology](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/imprint-collection). ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.9/10 - Popularity: 99% | Activity: 99% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, 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 Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Nature-inspired Design:** Incorporating nature and technology can lead to innovative designs that merge beauty and function. - **Interactive Furniture:** Collaborating technology and furniture can render innovative interactive products - **Smart Home Decor:** Technology can transform traditional home decor into responsive, dynamic and unconventional products. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Furniture Industry:** Furniture industry players can invest in research and innovation in integrating technology into furniture - **Home Decor Industry:** Home decor companies should consider as a disruptive innovation to explore furniture that merges art, technology, and utility. - **LED Technology Industry:** LED technology manufacturers can partner with furniture companies for creative technological integrations into interior design. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Sea-Inspired Table Lines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sea-materials.md) - [Coastline-Inspired Table Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/marea-low-table.md) - [Wave-Inspired Coffee Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/seahorse-coffee-table.md) - [Shimmering Oceanic Side Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/liquid-table.md) - [Fluid Topographic Coffee Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dune-table.md) - [Island-Inspired Wooden Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/island-table.md) - [Ocean Abyss-Inspired Coffee Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/abyss-horizon.md) - [Sensory Stimulation Dining Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oasix-table.md) - [Striking Limited-Edition Coffee Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/limitededition-coffee-table.md)
