How Furniture Trends Are Changing Today?

Posted by BM on 29th Jul 2015

A piece of furniture is not simply an object you can move around in your home or office and use for daily activities; it also doubles as a décor piece that adds warmth and elegance to any home. For some people it even triples as a luxury or a much needed comfort. Regardless of what purpose furniture serves for you, one thing is true – both furniture and our needs are changing as times go by.


Furniture is Going Green


In terms of availability, green furniture is not very new; however, the demand is. As environmental concerns and awareness came to the forefront lately and are a trend now; more business owners and homeowners are buying this type of furniture as part of their dedication to help their communities and the environment.


Furniture is Going Digital


Yes, you read that correctly. While they are not everywhere yet , there are reclining couches and chairs with digital screens built into the arm or the center console where you can press the screen to recline the chair. Who would have thought a couch in your living room would be equipped with a touchscreen one day?

Furniture is Multifunctional Now


With smaller spaces, people want furniture that can perform more than one function. While that idea is not a new concept, multi-functional furniture that we see today, is. For example, a living room set that transforms to a bed or a dining table into a game table.

Furniture is Going Global


There was a time when you could travel the world and see different styles of furniture depending on where you were. This time has come and gone. Today, you can walk through a house in the United States furnished in Asian style décor from beds to tables. Between the Internet, advancements in technology and furniture design, it appears that the world around you is becoming closer.

Vintage Furniture Stands Tall


Vintage furniture has always been and will always be popular. Customers tend to purchase this type of furniture for visual appeal and décor than for actual usability. Having few vintage pieces in your home add an antique or retro look in addition to a warm sense of nostalgia.

The design, function, and purpose of furniture have come a long way over the years. One can only imagine what furniture will look and feel like fifty years from now.
