# Nomadic Travel Gear The Nordic Nomad Chair is the Adventurer's Ideal Accessory By Andrew Robertson | Published 2012-03-19 | Eco Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nordic-nomad-chair References: [blog.gessato](http://blog.gessato.com/2012/03/15/the-nordic-nomad-chair-by-bjarke-frederiksen/) & [bjarkefrederiksen](http://www.bjarkefrederiksen.com/) With the Nordic Nomad chair by Bjarke Frederiksen, the required accessories for a day hike or picnic are all conveniently wrapped up into one hip travel pack. It was inspired by the roaming tribes of the frozen kingdom. The Nordic Nomad chair comes with six interlocking wooden pieces that can be easily rearranged, so transforming from chair to backpack isn’t a timely endeavor. The use of a subtle gray tone and beige create a vintage appeal that resonates with the image of the lonely wanderer, exploring uncharted territories, toting around the bare essentials. Whether it’s a day at the beach or a hike through the woods, the Nordic Nomad chair is a practical and stylish addition to your outdoor gear ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.8/10 - Popularity: 79% | Activity: 87% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Eco](https://www.trendhunter.com/eco) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Modular Travel Gear:** Designing modular and versatile travel gear that can be easily transformed to suit any outdoor need especially for minimalists. - **Vintage-inspired Outdoor Gear:** Creating outdoor gear that merges modern functionality with nostalgic and classic design, allowing adventurers to enjoy the retro aesthetic while having important features for their activities. - **Eco-friendly Outdoor Accessories:** Designing outdoor accessories that are environmentally friendly, such as chairs made from recycled materials and biodegradable packaging. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Outdoor Furniture and Accessories:** Outdoor furniture companies can create innovative and collapsible furniture pieces, making camping and picnic trips less burdensome on travelers by easily setting up or packing up equipment. - **Minimalist Travel Brands:** Companies in the minimalist travel field can innovate gear that can be rearranged or modified to suit different outdoor needs and spaces. - **Eco-friendly Materials Production:** Manufacturers can focus on producing biodegradable outdoor gear that is environmentally conscious to ensure that they don't pose a threat to the environment. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Dual-Purpose Camping Chairs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chair-a.md) - [Automatic Setup Camping Chairs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/naturehike-snap-chair.md) - [Compact Foldable Camping Chairs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/foldable-lander.md) - [Luxury Comfort Camping Chairs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nemo-stargaze-evox.md) - [Posh Pet-Friendly Chair Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nomad-juno.md) - [Multifunctional Beach Backpacks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bumruk.md) - [Suitcase-Style Portable Grills](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nomad-portable-charcoal-grill-smoker.md) - [Water-Resistant Outdoor Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nomad-collection.md) - [Durable One-Piece Camping Chairs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/portable-camping-chair.md)
