One of the fastest growing trends in furniture and interior décor currently is ‘multi-functional furniture’. Combining design with functional benefits is becoming necessary as city populations surge to millions, and accommodation turns into so-called micro-apartments.
Optimising your living space
Versatile solutions and designs allow residents to enjoy a high level of comfort – even in the tiniest of homes – and often in extremely elegant and stylish ways.
In brief, multi-functional furniture is designed to fulfil more than one task or purpose, all while maximising the use of the available space. Flexibility is an absolute keyword here.
Create flexibility by adding movement
Movement systems in micro-apartment furniture are becoming a more natural and rather obvious part of modern living in metropolitan areas. As a manufacturer of high-quality electric actuator solutions for adjustable furniture, LINAK follows the evolution of functional design closely. We know that electric actuators not only provide the luxury of smart and smooth moving furniture, it also saves you the toil of manually moving and turning a chair into a bed or a coffee table into a dining table.
