The innovative European designers have added a well-known musical instrument function to the traditional couch, making its design much more useful and comfortable. The et Demi Couch by Lundi et Demi features accordion-like features that turn the [three-seater couch into a love seat](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/coddle-luke-sleeper-sofa) or [three individuals armchairs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/flipster-seat). Depending on the living space, and whether it's for a public or private location, the et Demi couch makes it easy to give people space or bring them closer together. Lundi et Demi has constructed [unique accordion-like architecture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/come-together-1) in the couch that is visible when split apart. One must not sit on the accordion parts, however, as they are not able to support the weight of a person. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.1/10 - Popularity: 19% | Activity: 5% | 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) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/furniture) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Accordion-inspired Furniture:** Furniture companies can experiment with the use of accordion-like features in their products to add functionality and versatility to traditional furniture designs. - **Modular Furniture:** Furniture companies can create modular furniture designs that can be transformed into different seating arrangements to adapt to different spaces. - **Transformable Furniture:** There is an opportunity to develop furniture that can be easily transformed to suit different situations and environments e.g office or public areas. ### Where This Applies - **Furniture Manufacturing:** Furniture manufacturers can use accordion-inspired designs to manufacture versatile and functional furniture that meets the needs of different living spaces. - **Interior Design:** Interior designers can use accordion-inspired furniture designs to transform living spaces flexibly and easily to incorporate different seating arrangements. - **Home Décor Retail:** Home décor retailers can market transformable and accordion-inspired furniture designs to create functional and versatile spaces that meet the changing needs of their customers. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Expanding Three-in-One Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/expandy.md) - [Versatile Modular Couches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/transformer-couch-20.md) - [Modular Eco-Sourced Cozy Couches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-transformer-couch.md) - [Envelope-Packaged Couch Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/couch-in-an-envelope.md) - [Cocoon-Like Multifunctional Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/usofa.md) - [Modular Multifunctional Sofa Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hulala-home-elitenest.md) - [Modular Inflatable Furniture Sets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/transforming-sofa.md) - [Hybrid Sofa Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/adaptable-sofa-system.md) - [Interchangeable Cushion Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/morfius-modular-furniture.md)
