# Reconfigurable Contemporary Couches Concentre de Vie is a Sensationally Adaptable Seating System By Amelia Roblin | Published 2013-04-09 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/concentre-de-vie References: [beautifullife.info](http://www.beautifullife.info/interior-design/a-modular-sofa-concentre-de-vie/) & [campeggisrl.it](http://www.campeggisrl.it/home.html) One could easily appreciate the great value of the Concentré de Vie sofa. A small apartment or sitting room would be able to fit the loveseat-sized furnishing in fairly easily, and you get so much more than a simple two-seater with it. Matali Crasset collaborated with Campeggi to produce this playful piece, beginning with a [rigid frame-like base](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gioco) that can contain all of the separate components. It comes with [two L-shaped chairs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/flipster-seat) and two squat square cushions. These can be set into the frame to offer a plushy sitting surface for a pair of people, flanked by soft armrests. Alternatively, the upholstered units can be taken out of the Concentré de Vie sofa and arranged elsewhere in the room as [separate loungers and footrests](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/prado). The empty base even offers a rectangular pad that can be used as a spare mattress for guests. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.1/10 - Popularity: 57% | Activity: 28% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Gen Alpha, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Modular Seating Systems:** Adaptable and personalized furniture that can be modified to fit different room configurations. - **Multipurpose Furniture:** Designs that integrate multiple functionalities in one single piece of furniture. - **Flexible Design Solutions:** Innovative designs that offer multiple configurations and uses in various spaces. ### Who This Affects Most - **Furniture Manufacturing:** Manufacturers can explore new materials and manufacturing techniques to produce modular furniture with flexible configurations. - **Interior Design:** Interior design professionals can incorporate modular furniture into various spaces to optimize functionality and personalize their designs. - **Hospitality Industry:** Hotels and other lodging establishments can use modular furniture to provide more flexibility and comfort for their guests, while also optimizing space. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Modular Eco-Sourced Cozy Couches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-transformer-couch.md) - [Modular Multifunctional Sofa Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hulala-home-elitenest.md) - [Expanding Three-in-One Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/expandy.md) - [Hybrid Sofa Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/adaptable-sofa-system.md) - [Compact Collapsing Sofas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/acordion-modular-sofa.md) - [Family-Friendly Modular Couches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rubik-v-cloud-modular-couch.md) - [Space-Saving Modular Sofas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/flez-2-modular-sofa-system.md) - [All-in-One Modular Sofa Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rezy-sofa.md) - [Modular Sofa Systems](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hybla.md)
