# Curvaceous Cutout Seating The Martz Collection is Simplistically Futuristic By Meghan Young | Published 2013-11-19 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/martz-collection References: [trendir](http://www.trendir.com/archives/007236.html) & [martzedition](http://www.martzedition.com/presentation) The Martz Collection is comprised of [contemporary curvaceous seating](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fasettis-autumn-2024) that is perfect for the modern home or even an office waiting room. Its somewhat futuristic silhouette takes on an overall oval shape that is given a diagonal bit of depth thanks to the seat itself. With the backrest and base hollow as it is, the Martz Collection also has a cutout appeal that many will appreciate. Designed by Jean-Pierre Martz, the Martz Collection is comprised of three different subcategories itself (Tube, Ellipse and Galaxy), each of which are made up of two to four different models. From [stools to armchairs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/magnus-olesen), the designs are constructed in either [plywood or metal](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/touch-collections). Various colors are also available with the Martz Collection and patterns can be laser cut. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.2/10 - Popularity: 82% | Activity: 35% | 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 ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Curvaceous Seating:** Opportunity to innovate with new materials that can push the boundaries of seating design. - **Futuristic Silhouettes:** Opportunity to experiment with 3D printing and other fabrication techniques to create new futuristic designs. - **Laser-cut Patterns:** Opportunity to use laser-cutting technology to create intricate designs on furniture and other products. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Furniture:** Opportunity to incorporate innovative materials, colors and designs to attract modern consumers. - **Office Supplies:** Opportunity to revamp office furniture designs by incorporating unconventional shapes and materials. - **Interior Design:** Opportunity to experiment with futuristic seating designs to create unique and personalized spaces for clients. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Joint Workspace Seating Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/myami-collection.md) - [Oblong Color-Blocked Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/meritalia-morphologica-collection.md) - [Thoughtful Contemporary Furniture Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/la-pipe.md) - [Simplistic Line-Formed Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sculptures-furniture.md) - [Curvacious Oak Seating Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oak-seating.md) - [Elegant Simplistic Sofa Seatings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/taru-collection.md) - [Comtemporary Lounge Collection](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/eclipse-series.md) - [Ultra-Comfy Seating Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cushy-lounge-chair.md) - [Minimalist Steel-Frame Seating Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/steelframe-seating.md)
