# Trussed Table Frames The Folded Steel Stand Makes for an Intriguing Geometric Table Frame By Amelia Roblin | Published 2014-01-29 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/steel-stand References: [mocoloco](http://mocoloco.com/fresh2/2014/01/28/steel-stands-by-sebastian-scherer.php) & [sebastianscherer](http://www.sebastianscherer.com/) With the Steel Stand by Sebastian Scherer, the consumer is afforded the opportunity to have a hand in the design of his or her home furnishing. While the creator of this product does offer a set that comes with a beautiful ash wood tabletop, one may choose to find his own flat surface to span across the pair of [powder-coated metal braces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/barred-collection). The [triangulated design offers stability](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/solis-collection) when set up, reinforced by the folds in the industrial material. The assembly is lightweight and easy to pack away, making it possible to dismantle the table when it is not required. The Steel Stand comes in a variety of [contemporary colors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/runda) to accent your choice of timber, metal, glass or even plastic as your ideal tabletop. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.7/10 - Popularity: 30% | Activity: 14% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, 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 - **Customizable Furniture:** The Steel Stand allows consumers to personalize their furniture by choosing their own tabletop. - **Minimalistic Design:** The triangulated and folded design of the Steel Stand offers a sleek and minimalist aesthetic. - **Portable Furniture:** The lightweight assembly of the Steel Stand allows for easy packing and dismantling, making it ideal for portable furniture solutions. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Furniture Manufacturing:** Furniture manufacturers can explore customizable furniture options and incorporate minimalistic designs to appeal to modern consumers. - **Interior Design:** Interior designers can recommend portable furniture solutions like the Steel Stand to their clients who require flexible and easily movable furnishings. - **Home Decor Retail:** Home decor retailers can offer a variety of contemporary colors and tabletop options to pair with the Steel Stand, providing customers with customizable and on-trend furniture choices. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Slender Geometric Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tong-side-table.md) - [Skeletal Industrial Dining Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/landr-dining-and-conference-table.md) - [Impactful Industrial Side Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/to-steel-side-table.md) - [Portable Tray Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/taso-tray-table.md) - [Dynamic Strong Coffee Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sharp-table.md) - [Colorful Contemporary Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/runda-tables.md) - [Metal Sheet Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/twist-side-table.md) - [Sustainable Metallic Furniture Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stuttgart-chair-20.md) - [Singular Metal Sheet-Made Chairs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fold-chair.md)
