# Floorboard Furniture Deadgood's Parq Life Collection was Designed by Lee Broom By Meghan Young | Published 2011-06-08 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/parq-life References: [design-milk](http://design-milk.com/lee-broom-for-deadgood/) & [deadgoodltd](http://www.deadgoodltd.co.uk/Products.php?type=Online) The pattern seen throughout the Parq Life collection may remind you of something. If you look down, you will probably quickly realize that it is a classic herringbone pattern of parquetry flooring. Of course, not many homes sport such a pattern anymore. Designed by London-based industrial designer Lee Broom for United Kingdom furniture manufacturer Deadgood, the Parq Life collection is comprised of a floor lamp, coffee table, side table and sideboard. Tied together with the same [wood floorboard pattern](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/collective-collection), they also boast contemporary curves that give each piece a sleek and sophisticated look. Perfect for modern city homes as well as traditional cottage cabins, the Parq Life collection is versatile for many different lifestyles and personal styles. I especially like the [gold reflective surfaces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/draga-aurel1). ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.8/10 - Popularity: 36% | Activity: 11% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% 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 - **Floorboard Furniture:** The trend of using floorboard patterns in furniture design creates a unique and nostalgic aesthetic. - **Contemporary Curves:** The trend of incorporating contemporary curves in furniture design adds a sleek and sophisticated touch to traditional patterns. - **Versatile Design:** The trend of creating versatile furniture pieces that can fit into various lifestyles and personal styles allows for greater customization and functionality. ### Where This Applies - **Furniture Manufacturing:** Furniture manufacturers have the opportunity to explore new designs that incorporate floorboard patterns and contemporary curves. - **Interior Design:** Interior designers can utilize the trend of floorboard furniture to create unique and nostalgic spaces. - **Home Decor Retail:** Home decor retailers can tap into the trend of versatile furniture design to offer customers customizable and functional furniture options. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Unique Burl-Inspired Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/don-heston-studio.md) - [Timber Pared-Back Furniture Series](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pawson-furniture-collection.md) - [Curvacious Oak Seating Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oak-seating.md) - [Upcycled Veneer Furniture Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-george-collection.md) - [Revived Pattern Furniture Collection](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/henry-holland-studio-1.md) - [Textile-Inspired Hardwood Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lesire-collection.md) - [Geometric Wood Flooring](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-kaleidoscope-collection.md) - [Curvaceous Linoleum Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/linoleum-furniture-collection.md) - [Artisan Furniture Debut](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pirajean-lees.md)
