# Multi-Legged Seats The Milli Sofa is Business on the Top and Party on the Bottom By Meghan Young | Published 2010-10-11 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/milli-sofa References: [plusmood](http://plusmood.com/2010/10/milli-sofa-duffy-london/) & [duffylondon](http://www.duffylondon.com/product_d/Chairs-Sofas-C59/Milli-Sofa-P258.html) The Milli Sofa might look normal at first glance, but it features a multi-legged mutation beneath its deceptively tame cushions and frame. This quirky detail makes the piece stand out from the rest of the [seating options](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pebble-sofa) out there. Designed by Duffy London, the Milli Sofa is great in that it's not overly quirky. It's like a mullet, but the business is on the top and the party on the bottom. According to [Plus Mood](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kisawa-sanctuary), the Milli Sofa's upholstery is "100% wool sourced and woven in the UK, Wood is from [Forest Stewardship Council](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/national-geographic-for-west-elm-kids-collection) managed forests and other controlled sources." ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.2/10 - Popularity: 48% | Activity: 41% | 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) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Multi-legged Furniture:** Designing furniture with unique and quirky leg designs adds an element of fun to traditional seating options. - **Sustainable Upholstery:** Using eco-friendly materials for furniture upholstery, such as wool sourced and woven in the UK, appeals to environmentally conscious consumers. - **Business on Top, Party on Bottom Furniture:** Designing furniture that has a surprise element, like quirky leg designs, adds an element of fun to otherwise traditional pieces. ### Where This Applies - **Furniture Manufacturing:** Designing furniture with unique leg designs, like the Milli Sofa, can help manufacturers differentiate themselves in a crowded market. - **Interiors and Home Decor Retail:** Retailers can appeal to environmentally conscious consumers by offering products made with eco-friendly materials, like the wool used in the Milli Sofa upholstery. - **Interior Design Services:** Designers can offer clients the option of adding surprising, unique accents to furniture pieces, like quirky leg designs, for a personalized touch. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Mountainous Magnetic Wall-Mounted Sofas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mousarris-summit-modular-sofa.md) - [Curvaceous Modular Sofa Systems](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/michelin-modular-sofa-system.md) - [Oblong Color-Blocked Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/meritalia-morphologica-collection.md) - [Modular Minimalist Sofa Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/zonatta-bumper-sofa.md) - [Ultra-Relaxed Sofa Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/knoll-perron-pillo.md) - [Voluptuous Modern Sofa Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/reimagined-everyday-sofa.md) - [Cloud-Like Modular Sofa Systems](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pillo-sofa.md) - [Enveloping Sofa Structures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/perron-pillo.md) - [Modular Triangular Sofa Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/moooi-peaks-sofa.md)
