Volcanic Decor

The use of volcanic materials within contemporary decor pieces is on the rise

Implications - Design and decor-related industries, particularly brands within them that produce contemporary products, are increasingly using volcanic rock as a primary material in the formation of their products.

Insight - As new construction on homes continues to look more aesthetically modern, and more consumers are living in spaces where nature isn't as accessible, the desire for aesthetics that hint at more natural surroundings becomes more appealing to consumers. This is especially of those who pride themselves on keeping pace with what's emerging in home decor.
Workshop Question - Consider a historic item, ingredient or ritual that your brand could integrate into one of its products/services.
Trend Themes
1. Natural Materials - Design and decor-related industries are increasingly using natural elements such as volcanic rock as a primary material in the formation of a variety of products.
2. Cultural Influence - Design brands are drawing inspiration from traditional cultural elements in creating their pieces, as seen in collections like Piamundo's Volcanic Rock Collection.
3. Aesthetically Modern - As new construction on homes continues to look more aesthetically modern, and more consumers are living in spaces where nature isn't as accessible, the desire for aesthetics that hint at more natural surroundings becomes more appealing to consumers.
Industry Implications
1. Home Decor - Home decor brands can utilize natural materials such as volcanic rock to create contemporary products that appeal to consumers seeking a connection to nature.
2. Lighting - Lighting designers can draw inspiration from natural elements and cultural influences to create unique and visually striking designs, as seen in Studio davidpompa's Ambra Pendant.
3. Aromatherapy - Aromatherapy brands can create stylish and visually appealing diffusers incorporating natural elements such as volcanic stone, as seen in the LAJOS 'Vessel'.
