As an initiative of [Global Food Consulting](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/global-drain-technologies), the Taste Lab introduces the most recent food news and trends from around the world to London and the rest of the United Kingdom. Although this is a great initiative that brings awareness to all of the different strategies happening in the food industry, the Taste Lab's most intriguing element has to be its [Test Tube Chandelier](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/baccarat-x-harry-nuriev) that hangs above the space. Made up of 540 chemistry laboratory test tubes, it takes on a fluid, wave shape that is clearly inspired by the Taste Lab's allusion to a scientific lab. It was designed by In Square Lab. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.1/10 - Popularity: 33% | Activity: 23% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: 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 - **Experimental Food Trends:** Opportunity for disruptive innovation by experimenting with unique food concepts and flavors. - **Pop-up Spaces:** Opportunity for disruptive innovation by creating temporary experiential spaces to showcase new products and trends. - **Innovative Lighting Designs:** Opportunity for disruptive innovation in designing unique and visually striking lighting fixtures. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Food Industry:** Opportunity for disruptive innovation in introducing new food trends and concepts. - **Event Management Industry:** Opportunity for disruptive innovation in creating immersive and interactive pop-up experiences. - **Lighting Industry:** Opportunity for disruptive innovation in creating innovative and visually appealing lighting designs. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Glossy Ceramic-Pillared Restaurant Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/town-restaurant.md) - [Transformative Cocktail Menus](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/metamorphosis-menu.md) - [Avant-Garde Tea Store Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/heytea-lab-opens.md) - [Pop-Up Test Kitchens](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pop-up-test-kitchen.md) - [Glassmaking Tubular Pendant Lights](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/flare-light.md) - [Hyperrealistic Food Art Exhibitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/looks-delicious.md) - [Science-Themed Soda Shop Experiences](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cool-sips-mad-scientist-soda-lab.md) - [Blue-Tinged Restaurant Interiors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/taste-of-dadong.md) - [Freestanding Experimental Kitchens](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/experimental-kitchens.md)
