The collection includes [tables, benches, chairs, and desks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/collection-co), all with an architectural spin. The design of the Truss Collection is reminiscent of a bridge, or the [steel frames](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/barred-collection) of skyscrapers. Trusses are popular in architecture because they are unbelievably strong. Hopefully Context Furniture has brought that same stability to these pieces. **Implications** - In recent years, there has been a new found passion for inventive home decor.
