From device-charging smart tables to lightweight foldable seats, these August 2018 furniture trends elevate spaces with functionality and innovative technological elements. An example of a progressive furniture item is the Sierra Modern Home Studio Smart table. The contemporary furniture piece allows users to blend digital components into a domestic space. It integrates Qi technology on the surface to wirelessly charge devices whilst Bluetooth connection enables smartphone connectivity.
Another product that exemplifies innovative elements is the Möbel chair by Tianyi Shi and Max Hampton-Fischer. This piece moves along with the person's body structure and is extremely lightweight which allows for easy portability. Overall, these August 2018 furniture trends see many progressive elements including technology integration and bodily adaptation.
