# Quirky Convertible Stools The Ronzino Table is an Adaptable and Collapsable Domestic Furnishing By Amelia Roblin | Published 2014-01-12 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ronzino References: [formabilio](https://www.formabilio.com/shop/design-chairs/stools/ronzino-small-table) & [behance.net](https://www.behance.net/gallery/Ronzino-stool-for-Formabilio/8431329) The Ronzino Stool/Table is a wonderful piece, in part because we don't all live in mansions with the space and the money to invest in a broad range of furnishings. What you get with this delightful object is the flexibility of treating it as either a [side table or a seat](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pony), plus the practicality of [folding it up for easy storage](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/noah-folding-stool). When the Ronzino is not in use, Giancarlo Cutello designed it so that it can be collapsed and strapped together with a leather belt of black, red or blue. Once it's been fastened, it can be hung up on a wall or slipped into a closet for storage. Otherwise, use it bare as a [coffee table](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/diy-spinning-coffee-table) or as a plushy perch with its plaid pillow. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.6/10 - Popularity: 94% | Activity: 65% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Convertible Furniture:** The demand for adaptable furnishings in small living spaces presents opportunities for businesses to innovate and design furniture with multiple uses and functionalities. - **Space-saving Storage:** Innovations in space-saving storage solutions, such as collapsible and stackable designs, can address the needs of consumers who want to maximize their living space without sacrificing functionality and style. - **Customizable Design:** Businesses can offer customizable design options, such as various colors and patterns for pillows and upholstery, to cater to consumers who prioritize personalization and uniqueness in their home decor. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Furniture Manufacturing:** Furniture manufacturers can incorporate innovative materials, tools, and designs to create cost-effective and sustainable furniture products that cater to the needs of consumers in small living spaces. - **Interior Design:** Interior designers can offer space-saving and customizable design solutions that cater to the needs and preferences of clients who live in small apartments or houses. - **Home Decor Retail:** Home decor retailers can offer a wide variety of space-saving and customizable furniture and storage solutions to appeal to consumers who prioritize functionality, style, and personalization in their home decor. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Compact Outdoor Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/portable-1.md) - [Reversable Coffee Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/reverse.md) - [Transforming Stool-Integrated Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/quartet-side-table.md) - [Rolled-Up Wooden Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sofan.md) - [Functional Flat-Packed Stools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/walle-stool.md) - [Dual-Function Seating Shelves](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rubik-stool.md) - [Colorful Dual-Purpose Stool Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/s1-stool.md) - [Industrial Shapeshifting Table Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jointable.md) - [Ultra-Simple Multifunctional Furniture Pieces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chairpf.md)
