The latest show will be based in Basel, Switzerland and it will run in correlation with the Art Basel 2019 show as well. The festival features work from international galleries in order to draw attention to both emerging creatives and established artists as well. The Tomato Chair is presented by [Joshua Liner Gallery](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tippi-chair) and will be displayed at the A11 booth. The furniture design is strongly informed with artistic backgrounds, measuring out to be 120 by 120 by 90 cm. It directly recalls the human-like Tomato character famed by Parra's artwork in the colors of blue, red, and white. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.1/10 - Popularity: 81% | Activity: 65% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Africa ## 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 - **Art-inspired Furniture:** The collaboration between Parra and Case Studyo in designing the Tomato Chair presents an opportunity for disruptive innovation in furniture design that incorporates elements of art. - **Creative Exhibition Design:** VOLTA 2019 and Art Basel 2019 together showcase a trend in creative exhibition design to highlight emerging creatives and established artists, presenting an opportunity for disruptive innovation in event management, marketing, and promotion. - **Food-themed Home Decor:** The tomato-inspired design of Case Studyo's Tomato Chair presents an opportunity for disruptive innovation in home decor that incorporates food-themed furniture design. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Furniture Manufacturing:** The collaboration between Parra and Case Studyo in designing the Tomato Chair presents an opportunity for disruptive innovation in furniture manufacturing that is informed by art and creativity. - **Event Management:** VOLTA 2019 and Art Basel 2019 together showcase a trend in creative exhibition design that presents an opportunity for disruptive innovation in event management, marketing, and promotion. - **Home Decor:** The tomato-inspired design of Case Studyo's Tomato Chair presents an opportunity for disruptive innovation in home decor that incorporates food-themed furniture design. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Color Palette-Exploring Chairs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/taptap-chair.md) - [Fruit-Inspired Furniture Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fruitinspired-furniture-collection.md) - [Iconic Pixelated Chairs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/poltrona-frau-1.md) - [Reimagined Colorful Chair Series](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stedelijk-chair.md) - [Bold Community-Reflected Chairs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-flap-chair.md) - [Boldly Colorful Chair Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/popo-chair.md) - [Kitchen-Inspired Chair Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-pole-collection.md) - [Sculptural Recycled Plastic Chairs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/super-chair.md) - [Sizable Chair Installations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chair-installation.md)
