Fake Taxidermy

Hanging faux animal mounts as creative, yet cruelty-free wall decor

Implications - Faux trophies are eclectic amalgamations of old world art and contemporary panache. Inspired by nature, they merge elements of modern creation and design, yet utilize no animal products. They mirror the taxidermy mounts that were popular decades ago, yet live up to the ethical standards demanded today.
Trend Themes
1. Faux Taxidermy - The trend of using faux taxidermy is becoming more popular as consumers seek to fulfill their need for home decor without harming any creatures.
2. Ethical Consumerism - The rise of ethical consumerism has led consumers to seek out products that do not involve animals, which presents an opportunity for companies to create ethically responsible products.
3. Eclectic Home Decor - The eclectic nature of faux taxidermy is making it a popular choice for home decor as it combines elements of modern creation with old world art and design.
Industry Implications
1. Home Decor - The home decor industry can tap into the trend of using faux taxidermy as a cruelty-free alternative for animal-inspired home decor.
2. Environmental Manufacturing - Manufacturers can cater to ethical consumers by creating products that are both fully functional and do not involve animals.
3. Art and Design - The eclectic nature of faux taxidermy presents an opportunity for artists and designers to explore the combination of old world art and contemporary design in their works.
