# Repairable Flat-Pack Sofas Takt Launches the Spoke Sofa During 3 Days of Design By Kalin Ned | Published 2023-06-06 | Eco Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/flatpack-sofa1 References: [dezeen](https://www.dezeen.com/2023/06/06/furniture-company-takt-sofa-designed-for-repair/)  Flat-pack furniture has seen a spur in popularity in recent years as consumers appreciate the compactness of such pieces, and now [Takt](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ecoconscious-chair-design) is looking to further advance innovation in this furniture design category with its flat-pack sofa. To be showcased during 3 Days of Design, Denmark's annual design festival, the Spoke Sofa saves space and is quite portable but it also figures as a budget-friendly piece. The Danish furniture company developed the Spoke Sofa in collaboration with the Norwegian studio [Anderssen & Voll](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/anderssen-voll1). The design of the flat-pack sofa is "rooted in circular principles" and seeks to cut waste. Thus, the flat-pack silhouette can be easily disassembled and when broken, it allows for individual parts to be either replaced or repaired. Because of this, the flat-pack sofa design might be "passed down through generations by undergoing maintenance when required."
