# Piano Pieces Seating Tatum's Lounge by Andrew Rumpler is for the Musician in Us By Meghan Young | Published 2010-04-06 | Eco Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tatum-s-lounge References: [ninestoriesfurniture](http://www.ninestoriesfurniture.com/tatums-lounge/tatum1.htm) Ok girls, let's set something straight right now -- Tatum's Lounge does not refer to Channing Tatum. In fact, it is named for the 1940s stride pianist Arthur Tatum. Considering that it's made from [pieces of a piano](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jura-collection), that seems more appropriate, don't you think? Designed by Andrew Rumpler, Tatum's Lounge is specifically made from [recycled piano keys](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/frequency-20), creating a fragile look that is nonetheless sturdy enough to sit on. The look is inspired by "Arthur Tatum's haphazardly unpredictable solos and compositions." ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 0.9/10 - Popularity: 9% | Activity: 9% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Eco](https://www.trendhunter.com/eco) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Upcycling Furniture:** The trend of upcycling furniture gains popularity as consumers become more eco-conscious and seek unique home decor. - **Incorporating Music-inspired Designs:** Designers incorporate music-inspired elements into their products to appeal to consumers with a passion for music and creativity. - **Design with Sustainable Materials:** Designers use sustainable materials, such as recycled piano keys, to create visually stunning and eco-friendly furniture pieces. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Furniture Manufacturing:** Furniture manufacturers can explore upcycling techniques to create eco-friendly furniture pieces while tapping into the growing demand for sustainable decor. - **Home Decor Retail:** Home decor retailers can showcase music-inspired designs, such as the Tatum's Lounge, to attract consumers looking for unique and visually stunning pieces for their home. - **Music Industry Merchandise:** The music industry can incorporate sustainable materials, such as piano keys, into their merchandise designs to appeal to environmentally conscious music lovers. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Sculptural Art Pianos](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/steel-and-stone-piano-v2.md) - [Color Palette-Exploring Chairs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/taptap-chair.md) - [Playful Recycled Aluminum Chairs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tuba-chair.md) - [Touchscreen Grand Pianos](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/porochista.md) - [Musician-Friendly Chairs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/throne-x.md) - [Decadent Lounge Seating](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/poet-sofa.md) - [Stealthy Rare Wooden Instruments](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/torch-t01.md) - [Guitar-Holding Benches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/guitarholding-bench.md) - [Musician-Inspired Textural Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jura-collection.md)
