# Object-Specific Furniture ROOM Collection by Erik Olovsson and Kyuhyung Cho is Cleverly reative By Meghan Young | Published 2014-09-18 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/room-collection References: [coolhunting](http://www.coolhunting.com/design/room-collection-studio-eo.php) & [kyuhyungcho](http://kyuhyungcho.com/index.php?/furniture/room-font-colorrednewfont/) ROOM Collection is an artistic take on the traditional shelving unite. Instead of being made up of standard surfaces that are able to accommodate any type of object, the ROOM Collection is tailored to specific objects. For instance, there are angled cutouts perfect for books, domed cutouts for shoes and even medium circles for wine bottles and fruit. Designed by Erik Olovsson and Kyuhyung Cho, the ROOM Collection still manages to store quite a few objects. Presented at [Spazio Rossana Orlandi](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/room-as-instrument) during Milan Design Week 2014, it is made up of 25 [stackable blocks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/berto-hidden-secrets) that also vary in size and shape. This [modular system](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/arca) allows people to tailor the furniture to their own needs and desires. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.0/10 - Popularity: 69% | Activity: 13% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen X - 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 Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Object-specific Furniture:** The ROOM Collection exemplifies the trend of customized furniture that caters to the specific objects it will hold. - **Modular Furniture Systems:** The stackable and customizable nature of the ROOM Collection highlights the trend of modular furniture systems that allow for flexible and adaptable furniture arrangements. - **Artistic Shelving Units:** The ROOM Collection showcases the trend of creative and aesthetically pleasing shelving units that serve as both functional and decorative pieces. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Furniture Manufacturing:** Furniture manufacturers can leverage the demand for customized and modular furniture systems by incorporating these features into their designs. - **Interior Design:** Interior designers can incorporate artistic and creative shelving units like the ROOM Collection into their designs, bringing functionality and visual interest to spaces. - **Retail:** Retailers can capitalize on the trend of object-specific furniture by offering furniture collections that cater to specific types of objects, making organization and storage more accessible for consumers. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Book-Storing Side Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bookgroove-bookrack.md) - [Modular Configured Office Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cabinet.md) - [Sculptural Living Systems](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cromatica.md) - [Customizable Storage Furniture Systems](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/shelved-modular-furniture.md) - [Room-Dividing Bookshelf Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/frquence-shelf.md) - [Customizable Home Decor Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rebound-furniture-collection.md) - [Work-Life Balance Shelving Units](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/criteria-shelf.md) - [Modular Configuration Shelving Units](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/repisa-01.md) - [Contemporary Modular Furniture Systems](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/loopo-system.md)
