# Stacked Furniture as Art The Possible Plateform Table By Elsa Blaine | Published 2008-09-08 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ultra-modern-stacked-furniture-possible-plateform-by-robert-stadler References: [dezeen](http://www.dezeen.com/2008/09/04/robert-stadler-at-galerie-emmanuel-perrotin/#more-17563) This ultra-modern collection of [tables and desks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/arnardo-desk) were created by designer Robert Stadler. The pieces are titled “Possible Plateform”, “Possible Meridienn” and “Possible Low-Table”. The furniture looks as if [giant smooth flat river rocks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fels-coffee-table) have been strategically stacked on top of each other. However, Stadler actually builds the sleek furniture from [upholstered and lacquered boards](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vtna-table). I think it would be fun if the boards could swivel around to create new shapes. Robert Stadler was born in Vienna and now lives and works in both Paris and Rio de Janeiro. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 0.9/10 - Popularity: 4% | Activity: 16% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% 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 - **Stacked Furniture:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop furniture that can be easily reconfigured to create new shapes and arrangements. - **Ultra-modern Design:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Combine sleek design with innovative materials to create furniture that stands out in the market. - **Multi-functional Furniture:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Create furniture pieces that serve multiple purposes, maximizing space and utility. ### Who This Affects Most - **Furniture Manufacturing:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Incorporate new materials and construction techniques to create visually striking and versatile furniture. - **Interior Design:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Embrace unconventional designs and creative materials to push the boundaries of interior design. - **Home Decor Retail:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Curate a collection of unique and innovative furniture pieces that cater to modern design sensibilities. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Stacked Wood Dining Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/plane-dining-table.md) - [Terrazzo Side Table Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/balance-side-table.md) - [Puzzling Geometric Side Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/linked-side-table.md) - [Dynamic Sculptural Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/interactive-transformation-table.md) - [Interlocking Puzzle-Like Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/connect-table.md) - [Multifaceted Geometric Stools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stackable-stools.md) - [Modular Stacked Furniture Series](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stack-furniture-collection.md) - [Wavy Sculptural Coffee Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sculptural-coffee-tables.md) - [Playful Wavy Table Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wavy-table-design.md)
