# Stylish Swedish Camping Equipment The 'Wax-On Tent' is Crafted Using Swedish Pine and Waxed Cotton By Michael Hemsworth | Published 2016-01-28 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/waxed-cotton References: [notcot.org](http://www.notcot.org/post/60811/WaxOn-Tent-a-collaboration-between-FeaturingFeaturing-a/) & [avantikaagarwaldesign](http://www.avantikaagarwaldesign.com/) Created in collaboration between Featuring-Featuring and Avantika Agarwal, the 'Wax-On Tent' is a beautiful achievement that makes lovely use of Swedish pine and waxed cotton. Something of a mix between a tent and an outdoor lounge hut, the 'Wax-On Tent' is three meters in height, which allows ample space for enjoying the breeze. The top portion of the 'Wax-On Tent' is finished with a deep ocean blue dye that enables the roof of the waxed cotton dwelling to seem more like a whimsical escape. Although the 'Wax-On Tent' might not provide much protection from the elements, the stylistic nature of the [camp dwelling](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/canvascamp-mouflon-tent) is truly a work of art. The rear interior of the 'Wax-On Tent' hides cabinets for storing bedding or other essentials. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.9/10 - Popularity: 93% | Activity: 76% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Sustainable Camping:** Creating camping equipment using eco-friendly materials, such as Swedish pine and waxed cotton, presents opportunities for sustainable camping experiences. - **Outdoor Lounge Huts:** Blurring the lines between tents and lounge spaces, the trend of creating outdoor lounge huts combines comfort and nature for immersive outdoor experiences. - **Whimsical Escapes:** The use of deep ocean blue dye in camping equipment creates whimsical escapes that offer a unique and aesthetically pleasing camping experience. ### Where This Applies - **Outdoor Recreation:** The outdoor recreation industry can incorporate sustainable camping practices and create innovative camping equipment to attract environmentally conscious consumers. - **Hospitality:** Hotels and resorts can incorporate outdoor lounge huts into their offerings, providing guests with unique and luxurious outdoor experiences. - **Outdoor Gear Manufacturing:** Manufacturers of outdoor gear can explore the trend of creating whimsical escapes through innovative designs and incorporating aesthetically pleasing elements in their products. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Angular Multi-Level Tents](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nokken-softshell-tent.md) - [Posh Polyhedral Camping Tents](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tokyo-crafts-grayhus.md) - [Ergonomic Suspended Camping Tents](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/switra-swisstrail.md) - [Geodesic Street Wear Tents](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/heimplanet-x-maharishi-cave-tent.md) - [Lunar Lander-Inspired Tents](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kudhva-kanvas-ktent.md) - [Durable Adventure-Ready Tents](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/space-acadia.md) - [Sleek Utilitarian Tents](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/snow-peaks-ivory-tent-tarp.md) - [Expansive Multipurpose Tents](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/multipurpose-tents.md) - [Inflatable House-Shaped Tents](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/air-architecture-inflatable-tent.md)
