Designed by brilliant Japanese studio [Nendo](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nendo-andon-table) for the popular Danish furniture brand [BoConcept](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cancn-kollection), the super innovative origami-inspired furniture and homeware collection isn't overly modern or hipster shabby chic. It strikes the perfect balance between both with its geometric pattered motif. The 'Fusion' collection includes 13 pieces -- as well as accessories like cushions, rugs, plates and trays -- and does a great job of fusing the design elements of both Japanese and Danish design. "Like the collection's name suggests, we wanted to create new functions and visual effects by fusing together two different elements," says Nendo. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.2/10 - Popularity: 84% | Activity: 65% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: 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 ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Origami-inspired Furniture:** There is an opportunity for businesses to create origami-inspired furniture that fuses innovative design with functionality. - **Geometric Patterned Homeware:** Businesses can explore the creation of homeware featuring geometric patterns that combine different cultural design elements. - **Japanese-danish Design Fusion:** The fusion of Japanese and Danish design presents an opportunity to create unique furniture and homeware collections that appeal to a wide audience. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Furniture:** The furniture industry can capitalize on the trend by designing and manufacturing origami-inspired furniture pieces. - **Homeware:** The homeware industry can incorporate geometric patterns into their products to cater to consumers seeking innovative and visually appealing home accessories. - **Interior Design:** Interior designers can explore the fusion of Japanese and Danish design to create captivating and unique living spaces for their clients. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Origami-Inspired Seating Capsule](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/origamiinspired-design1.md) - [Kimino Making-Inspired Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/origata-collection.md) - [Braided Furniture Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/design-tradition.md) - [Collapsible Outdoor Furniture Pieces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/origami-outdoor-furniture.md) - [Cross-Cultural Furniture Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kensaku-oshiro.md) - [Soft Geometric-Themed Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oru-collection.md) - [Adaptive Furniture Systems](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/expand-furniture.md) - [Dynamically Playful Furniture Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wekino-with.md) - [Incredibly Vibrant Homeware Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vibrant-homeware.md)
