The chairs were a reworking of the iconic [tubular stacking chair](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pul-collection), composed of iron framing and [distressed leather seating](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/shrinx-lounge-chair). The leather was patterned to better fit the specific ways people sit; whether it's sitting square in the middle, teetering on the edge or having your knees tucked into your chest. These chairs are [reflective of the human body](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/himalaya-pelvis-chair), form and activity and would make a really unique addition to any home. Capellino’s knowledge of leather and Blanchard’s expertise in chair design has combined to create a truly interesting piece – that will also be comfortable and fit to your preferred seating form. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.2/10 - Popularity: 19% | Activity: 8% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: 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 - **Customized Seating:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop customizable chairs that can be personalized to fit each individual's preferred seating form. - **Human-centric Design:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Explore designing products that are tailored to the specific ways people naturally interact with and use them. - **Reimagined Classics:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Take iconic and traditional designs and update them with modern materials and functionality, providing a fresh and unique twist. ### Who This Affects Most - **Furniture Manufacturing:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Integrate technology and innovative materials in the manufacturing process to create custom-fit and ergonomic furniture pieces. - **Interior Design:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Incorporate human-centric aspects into interior design projects, considering individual seating preferences and activities for optimized comfort and functionality. - **Fashion and Home Décor Collaboration:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Foster collaborations between fashion designers and home décor experts to create unique, form-fitting furniture pieces that combine style and functionality. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Industrial Leather-Padded Chair Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/strip-chair-by-henge.md) - [Timeless Contemporary Dynamic Chairs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bodo-sperlein.md) - [Chunky Curvaceous Lounge Chairs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/001-chair.md) - [Dynamic Furniture Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tom-dixon-fat-and-plump.md) - [Simplistic Seating Series](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hipstool.md) - [Smart Bulbous Seating Solutions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/buffo.md) - [Vibrant '90s-Inspired Armchairs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/holloway-li.md) - [Contemporary Leather Classic Chairs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sling-chair-1.md) - [Sleek Posture-Correcting Seats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ayur-chair-1.md)
