# Exotically Patterned Homewares The Urban Outfitters Noodle Textile Collection Focuses on the Bed By Meghan Young | Published 2014-01-21 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/urban-outfitters-noodle-textile References: [refinery29](http://www.refinery29.com/2014/01/60966/urban-outfitters-noodle) & [urbanoutfitters](http://www.urbanoutfitters.com/) The Urban Outfitters Noodle Textile collection has a worldly air. This is due in large part to the fact that the patterns and prints used throughout the houseware line are inspired by a variety of cultures, from Japan to Morocco. Focusing specifically on the bedroom, although these pieces can easily be used in other parts of the home, the collection is comprised of [bedding, cushions, curtains and carpets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/indienne-collection). Created in collaboration with [textile expert](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/soft-goods-collection) Soup Home, the Urban Outfitters Noodle Textile collection is not the first time the two brands have teamed up. Of course, looking at the designs, it is easy to figure out why they make a great team. The pieces will be available this month. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.5/10 - Popularity: 28% | Activity: 8% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## 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 - **Worldly Patterns:** Exploring and incorporating patterns inspired by various cultures into products can create unique and globally appealing designs. - **Collaborative Design:** Partnering with experts in specific fields, such as textile design, can result in innovative and well-crafted product collections. - **Versatile Home Furnishings:** Creating home decor items that can be easily used in different areas of the house offers convenience and flexibility for consumers. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Home Decor:** The home decor industry can embrace the trend of incorporating culturally inspired patterns into their product offerings to attract customers looking for unique and globally influenced designs. - **Textile and Fashion:** Collaborating with textile experts and designers can lead to disruptive innovation opportunities in the textile and fashion industry, allowing for the creation of exclusive and culturally diverse collections. - **Retail:** Retail brands, like Urban Outfitters, can capitalize on the demand for versatile home furnishings by offering multi-functional and adaptable products that appeal to consumers looking for convenient and flexible decor solutions. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Instant Ramen-Inspired Bedding Sets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cup-noodle-bedding-set.md) - [Curated Homeware Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/a-common-thread.md) - [Culture-Inspired Tableware Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cultureinspired-tableware-collection.md) - [Creature-Inspired Home Good Lines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/charles-jeffreys-loverboy.md) - [Designer Bedding Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/brooklinen-x-dabito.md) - [Creatively Abstract Homeware Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rixo-1.md) - [Artful Versatile Rug Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nanimarquina.md) - [Menu-Inspired Dorm Decor](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/urban-outfitters-x-chipotle.md) - [Cozy Co-Branded Homewares](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fragment-x-nanga-good-sleeping-capsule.md)
