# Cone-Legged Furniture Defy Traditional Design with the Vuoristo Table by Fabien Barrero+Carsenet By Leslie Chen | Published 2013-08-21 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vuoristo-table References: [archidesignclub](http://www.archidesignclub.com/magazine/rubriques/design/45305-studio-fabien-barrero-carsenat-table-basse-vuoristo.html) & [fabienbarrero](http://www.fabienbarrero.com/) There are usually only so many [design options](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/modern-table-designs) when looking for a [coffee table](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/blur-coffee-table), but the Vuoristo Table offers something totally different for your living room. Created by French designer Fabien Barrero+Carsenet, the table seems to show a dislike for the normal pegs that are traditionally used for table legs and instead opts for steel-constructed cones. The Vuoristo Table - meaning mountain in Finish - was inspired by the breathtaking landscapes in Finland. The bottom half of the table shows the skeletal composition of the cones while the top half reveals a smooth surface which resemble the beautiful countryside scenery. You may find some great deals at [Ikea](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ikea-konstrunda), but the Vuoristo Table will give your home an edge you just can't find anywhere else. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 0.8/10 - Popularity: 10% | Activity: 6% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/furniture) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Cone-legged Furniture:** The use of unconventional leg structures for furniture, such as steel cones, is a potential disruptive innovation opportunity for furniture design. - **Non-traditional Design:** Breaking away from traditional design norms and offering unique, visually striking pieces like the Vuoristo Table could be a disruptive innovation opportunity for the furniture industry. - **Geographical Inspiration:** Drawing inspiration from specific geographical locations, like the Vuoristo Table's inspiration from Finland's landscapes, could be a new trend for furniture designers looking to create unique pieces. ### Who This Affects Most - **Furniture Design:** The use of unconventional materials and structures in furniture design, like steel cones instead of traditional pegs, could be a disruptive innovation opportunity for the furniture industry. - **Interior Design:** Offering non-traditional design options, like the visually striking Vuoristo Table, could be a disruptive innovation opportunity for the interior design industry, particularly in creating unique and eye-catching living spaces. - **Geographically-inspired Products:** Drawing inspiration from geographical locations, like the Vuoristo Table's inspiration from Finland, could be a new trend for designers in various industries looking to create unique and visually interesting products. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Wavy Sculptural Coffee Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sculptural-coffee-tables.md) - [Harmonious Helical Coffee Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vortex-coffee-table.md) - [Bent Steel Coffee Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/creu-coffee-table.md) - [Raw Stone-Inspired Jagged Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fels-coffee-table.md) - [Curvaceous Abstract Side Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pet-table.md) - [Dynamic Strong Coffee Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sharp-table.md) - [Colorful Contemporary Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/runda-tables.md) - [Möbius Strip-Inspired Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mbelius-coffee-table.md) - [Topographic Wooden Coffee Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/topographic-coffee-table.md)
