# Foldable Fugly Furniture Very Plain 'Twin C' Table is Made Chic by Its Foldability By Jessica Marcel | Published 2009-09-18 | Eco Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/foldable-furniture-twin-c-table References: [dailytonic](http://www.dailytonic.com/twin-c-by-johan-berhin-and-johanna-hansson-for-berhin-studios/) & [berhin.se](http://www.berhin.se/eco.asp) The Twin C table by Berhin Studios (out of Sweden) is not attractive. Let’s just be honest: it looks like particle board, not even with finished edges like the stuff at [IKEA](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hypercustomizable-desk). But that’s okay, because the Swedish designers have a purpose in mind, and it’s important to remember that often function outweighs form. The Twin C table offers a new take on foldable furniture, The supports can be stored in even the smallest Swedish apartment, and the tabletop is double-sided (so you can have plain wood, or plain black, or plain dark wood…you get the point). Behrin Studios, with their C Eco Series, will also plant a tree for every single piece of furniture they sell. Now, lack of cuteness aside, what’s not to love about that? ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.9/10 - Popularity: 8% | Activity: 70% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Eco](https://www.trendhunter.com/eco) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Foldable Furniture:** The trend of foldable furniture can disrupt the traditional furniture industry by providing space-efficient and practical designs. - **Dual-purpose Furniture:** The trend of dual-purpose furniture can disrupt the traditional furniture industry by providing practical and functional designs that can serve multiple purposes. - **Eco-friendly Furniture:** The trend of eco-friendly furniture can disrupt the traditional furniture industry by providing sustainable and environmentally conscious designs. ### Who This Affects Most - **Furniture Manufacturing:** Furniture manufacturers can incorporate the trend of foldable furniture into their products to make them more space-efficient and practical. - **Interior Design:** Interior designers can utilize the trend of dual-purpose furniture to create functional and stylish living spaces for their clients. - **Sustainability:** The trend of eco-friendly furniture presents opportunities for sustainable businesses to disrupt the traditional furniture industry and cater to environmentally conscious consumers. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Planet-Conscious Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fyrn.md) - [Collapsible Flatpack Side Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/edo-side-table.md) - [Compact Functional Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bookmarker-table.md) - [Multifunctional Magnetic Folding Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/folding-table.md) - [Compact Folding Side Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pelin-ozbalci.md) - [Wall-Mounted Two-Legged Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/instable-side-table.md) - [Colorful Contemporary Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/runda-tables.md) - [High-Strength Accordion Side Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/paper-side-table.md) - [Industrial Shapeshifting Table Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jointable.md)
