The Oscar Zieta 3+ [modular furniture collection](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/modulo-collection) will be officially unveiled this month in Milan. The set appears much like classic K'Nex toy sets, a look that resonates with its ability to be put together as buyers see fit.

Sold within this Zieta series are [chairs, tables, shelves](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/original-modern-shelving) and magnetic boards. Screws or connectors are used to assemble the pieces, and though they can be put together in a basic manner, they can also be tampered with, giving way to [original shapes and layouts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/collection-co). A series of holes are also present here, giving way to clean sleek spaces that won't hide electrical chords or household wares while also keeping one's laptops and tech products cool.
