The Pop-Up Linen is a [flat-pack wardrobe](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bug-collection-1) for those who require an impromptu space for clothes some of the time, but not always. Although this might seem slightly strange for those with enough space to hold a permanent armoire, smaller homes struggle to accommodate such a big piece of furniture. The Pop-Up Linen is also useful for temporary fashion shops, studio photoshoots and more.

Designed by furniture designer Renate Nederpel, a graduate from the [Royal Academy of Art](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wip-windmill-in-play) in The Hague, the Pop-Up Linen is made out of a rugged material and stands on four pinewood legs. Boasting an [origami-like construction](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/folding-shelf), it is easy to assemble and disassemble when required. It is minimalist and modern overall.
