# Colorful Eco Chairs Fetiche Design Makes Leftover Textiles Colorful with the Barraco Coll By Jessica Marcel | Published 2010-03-14 | Eco Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/barraco-collection References: [design-milk](http://design-milk.com/barraco-collection-by-fetiche-design/) & [fetichedesign.br](http://www.fetichedesign.com.br/collections.html#barraco) Fetiche Design uses leftover textiles to complete the chairs in the Barraco Collection. Each chair is painted in a [bright color](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/taptap-chair), then finished with a seatpad that would otherwise have gone to a landfill. Using leftover textiles is a great way to be eco-conscious, save money, and stay stylish at the same time. The Barraco Collection takes advantage of the many random pieces produced from textile construction. **Implications** - Customers desire more ways to stay environmentally friendly among the increasing amount of harms done to the planet. Everyday products made through sustainable methods are attractive to those with fast-paced lifestyles. Companies could focus on this desire for more eco-conscious items in order to increase their profit. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.1/10 - Popularity: 46% | Activity: 38% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Eco](https://www.trendhunter.com/eco) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Sustainable Furniture:** Companies can explore using leftover materials to create unique and eco-friendly furniture designs. - **Upcycling Textiles:** Textile waste can be repurposed into colorful and stylish objects, inspiring new creative possibilities. - **Eco-conscious Design:** Designing products with the environment in mind can attract customers looking for sustainable and stylish options. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Furniture Manufacturing:** Incorporating sustainable and upcycling practices into furniture production can appeal to eco-conscious customers. - **Textile Production:** Textile companies can explore upcycling practices and partnerships with furniture manufacturers to reduce waste and create unique products. - **Retail:** Retailers can cater to customers looking for eco-friendly options by stocking products made with sustainable and upcycled materials. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Recycled Dynamic Seating](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bultan-chair.md) - [Eco-Friendly Lounge Chair Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/recyclable-lounge-chair.md) - [Chic Recycled Material Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vale-furniture-collection.md) - [Eco-Friendly Pouf Chair Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rio-pouffe.md) - [Sustainably Minded Seating Solutions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/conscious-chair.md) - [Chic Recycled Waste Chairs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/xox-chair.md) - [Waste-Based Furniture Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ecofriendly-furniture1.md) - [Textured Recycled Plastic Chairs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fiber-chair-family.md) - [Bold Community-Reflected Chairs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-flap-chair.md)
