# Storage Seating The +Chair is a Place to Sit for You and Your Belongings By Andrew Robichaud | Published 2009-07-22 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/plus-chair References: [yankodesign](http://www.yankodesign.com/2009/07/21/plus-chair-plus/) & [soyoungparkstudio](http://www.soyoungparkstudio.com/) The +Chair is a perfect mix of [a chair and a coffee table](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/modular-table-and-chair) (not for coffee, but I guess it could be). The +Chair rocks a [pretty unique design](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/atypical-chair) that features [two legs in the front](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pere-chair) and a solid slab in the back (sounds weird but it actually works). At the top of the chair is a little flat area that is perfect for holding accessories that add to household clutter. You can put candles, or your wallet or even a photograph of someone, right up on the back of your chair. It’s simple, it’s creative and it serves a decent purpose. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.5/10 - Popularity: 15% | Activity: 52% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/furniture) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Storage Furniture:** The trend of combining furniture with built-in storage creates opportunities for innovative designs and clutter-free living spaces. - **Multi-functional Design:** The rising trend of multi-functional design in furniture allows for space-saving solutions and increased functionality. - **Personalized Home Accessories:** The trend of incorporating personalized and meaningful accessories into furniture design offers opportunities for customization and self-expression. ### Who This Affects Most - **Furniture:** The furniture industry can explore innovative designs and materials to incorporate storage elements into various types of seating. - **Interior Design:** Interior design professionals can leverage multi-functional furniture trends to create aesthetically pleasing and space-efficient home environments. - **Home Decor:** The home decor industry can tap into the trend of personalized accessories by offering customizable add-ons for furniture pieces. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Antitheft Storage Seating Solutions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/afford-chair.md) - [Table-Equipped Seating Solutions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/migo-chair.md) - [Storage-Equipped Restaurant Chairs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rack-chair.md) - [Posh Pet-Friendly Chair Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/arch-chair-design.md) - [Cozy Storage-Focused Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-pocket-chair.md) - [Ultra-Simple Multifunctional Furniture Pieces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chairpf.md) - [Dual-Purpose Camping Chairs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chair-a.md) - [Intuitive Entryway Seats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-front-stool.md) - [Hollow Multipurpose Armchairs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tailor-armchair.md)
