Instead of the using typical and traditional [metal file cabinets and wooden bookcases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sfso-1), workspaces can be equipped with [perforated furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/draga-aurel1) that lets natural light seep through to better brighten employee surroundings. The PEEP storage units were created by Stockholm-based Note Design Studio. Full of cute and creative character, these pieces combine form and function for furniture that addresses various needs. The units themselves can be [fitted together like a Tetris game](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/berto-hidden-secrets), allowing them to accommodate specific spaces easily. The designers explain, "The product would also be a spacious and visually exciting furniture that was not specifically linked to the office environment." ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.0/10 - Popularity: 89% | Activity: 82% | 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 ### What's Driving This Trend - **Perforated Furniture:** Companies can explore the trend of using perforated furniture to allow natural light into workspaces, enhancing employee well-being. - **Colorful Storage Units:** The use of colorful storage units can add a touch of creativity and character to office spaces, creating an inspiring work environment. - **Modular Design:** The trend of modular design in furniture allows for easy customization and adaptation to different office layouts and needs. ### Who This Affects Most - **Office Furniture:** The office furniture industry can benefit from incorporating perforated and colorful storage units to offer innovative and well-designed solutions to their customers. - **Interior Design:** Interior design professionals can explore the use of perforated furniture to create unique and visually appealing workspaces that promote natural light and employee well-being. - **Architectural Design:** Architects can incorporate modular furniture design concepts to design office spaces that are flexible, adaptable, and customizable. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Colorful Modular Storage Sysem](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/center-center-storage.md) - [Funky Colorful Storage Units](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/colorful-storage-units.md) - [People-Pleasing Office Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cubicle-system.md) - [Sandbox-Like Modular Storage Cabinets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/modular-storage-cabinet1.md) - [Modular Office Furniture Series](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/form-us-with-love-1.md) - [Bright Modular Office Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/center-center.md) - [Pocket Storage-Equipped Workstations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pocket-desk.md) - [Minimalist Storage-Paired Workstations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/diag-desk.md) - [Modular Configured Office Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cabinet.md)
