Some of those so-called micro trends last for a couple of months and simply die down, while others have a timeless quality to them and seem to be here to stay. One of the latter trends is the Dark Academia aesthetic. This authentic trend seemingly draws design inspiration from the Renaissance period and it is usually described as gloomy and romantic, but there is much more to it than it might appear at first glance.
