The two owners of Design da Gema witnessed a shooting at a carioca bar from the Northern Zone of Rio de Janeiro. They decided to rescue one of the chairs and thankfully, it was repaired. The pair decided to celebrate by launching the [Stray Bullet Chair series](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-flap-chair). Each of the seats have [perforated holes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stamping-chair)/eyelets patterned at random so that it looks like it suffered an unfortunate drive-by shooting. This shoot 'em up design gives it a badass aesthetic that's stylishly modern. The Stray Bullet Chairs are extremely limited in numbers with only 12 units produced. Prices are available upon request and it comes in either black or gray. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.3/10 - Popularity: 61% | Activity: 59% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Millennial - 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's Driving This Trend - **Gun-inspired Design:** Designs inspired by firearms and weaponry. - **Limited Production:** Creating a sense of exclusivity by producing a limited number of products. - **Repaired Goods:** Revitalizing damaged goods into new, stylish products. ### Who This Affects Most - **Furniture Manufacturing:** Innovating furniture design by incorporating unconventional inspirations. - **Artisanal Furniture:** Crafting high-end and exclusive furniture pieces. - **Luxury Home Decor:** Offering unique and high-end home decor items that stand out from the crowd. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Recycled Dynamic Seating](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bultan-chair.md) - [Supportive Lightning Bolt Seating](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lightning-chair.md) - [Unexpected Boundary-Pushing Chairs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/atypical-chair.md) - [Self-Defence Tubular Inflatable Chairs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/street-seat.md) - [Modern Design-Exploring Art Objects](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pratone-chair.md) - [Marbles-Inspired Intricate Chair Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/shepherd-studio.md) - [Bungee Cord Seating Solutions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tcord-chair.md) - [Industrial Leather-Padded Chair Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/strip-chair-by-henge.md) - [Music-Inspired Chairs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/modern-chair1.md)
