2009 was a solid year for Pacific Green. Our ranges of home
If you’re shopping for modern and contemporary furniture this summer, keep an eye on these hot furniture trends:
Eco-friendly furniture
The news regarding climate change has had a strong influence on many people, including furniture designers, and reminded all of us of the importance of protecting the environment. These same people have started making environmentally-conscious choices when furnishing their homes or offices. This modern eco-friendly movement has inspired such a large number of innovative designers to use sustainable materials and methods in their designs.
Don’t think that eco-friendly furniture is not well designed or cheaper than normal furniture. The green furniture pieces carried by Furniture by Duval all feature not only sustainable materials, but also unique design and high-end construction.
Modular furniture and multifunctional furniture
Due to the shrinking of our living areas, the demand of multifunctional and modular furniture has been increasing. Furniture now tends to come in smaller sizes and must be more flexible to customize for certain occasions or for the living space. While sofa beds are not new, they have become even more popular recently. It’s just so convenient to have one when you have a small apartment and you often have friends stay over. Or for another example, look at the wall unit where you have all-in-one: a TV solution, a book shelf and a glass cabinet!
Bright colors
When you think about summer, you think about sunshine and bright colors. Don’t think these kinds of colors are just for children’s rooms. You can also use these colors for your bedroom or living room. Using bright colors for your interior furniture is a way to bring the summer breeze into your home. Specifically, choosing one bright accent piece such as a bed, ottoman, or a wardrobe could become a fresh touch for a neutral color room. This summer, bright colors such as pink, yellow and green make a comeback.
Furniture by Duval carries the latest in modern furniture, European furniture, and eco friendly, sustainable furniture. To learn more about modern furniture trends, visit us at our Manhattan showroom located at 11 Fulton St. in New York City.
