# Asymmetrical Modular Seating The Studio Twin Chairs Encourage Connections Between Adjacent Sitters By Amelia Roblin | Published 2013-04-13 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/studio-twin-chairs References: [dezeen](http://www.dezeen.com/2013/04/13/studio-seating-by-unstudio-for-offecct/) & [offecct.se](http://www.offecct.se/produkter/fatoljer/studio-twin-beam) There are three different models of the Studio Twin chairs, including the standard version with a mirrored backrest and base, the Studio Twin Beam with a table attached and the Easy Chair that more simply comprises its backrest and distinguishing single armrest. UNStudio created these quirky perches for Offecct by assembling fine [bent-metal frames](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wire-chair-concept) and [laminated wooden panels](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hug-chair-1) that have been formed into continuous seats, backrests and side supports. These are then covered in soft fabrics or smooth leather materials and rendered in [bold colors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/no-two-alike) like red. The beauty of the shape of the Studio Twin chairs is that their wing-like sides encourage the arrangement of rhythmic patterns. Configure the seats alternatingly back and forth and you'll end up with a unique use of space and an opportunity for face-to-face neighbors to interact. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.3/10 - Popularity: 52% | Activity: 10% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Gen Alpha, 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 - **Asymmetrical-modular-seating:** The trend of asymmetrical modular seating offers opportunities for innovative furniture designs that encourage interaction and unique use of space. - **Mirrored-backrests:** The trend of using mirrored backrests in seating designs provides an opportunity for visually striking and aesthetically pleasing furniture. - **Bold-colored-seating:** The trend of using bold colors in seating design creates opportunities for eye-catching and statement-making furniture pieces. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Furniture-manufacturing:** The furniture manufacturing industry can capitalize on the asymmetrical modular seating trend by creating innovative and customizable seating options. - **Interior-design:** The interior design industry can incorporate mirrored backrests into their designs, creating visually stunning and unique seating arrangements. - **Fashion-and-textiles:** The fashion and textiles industry can benefit from the trend of bold-colored seating by providing high-quality and fashionable fabric and leather coverings for seating designs. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Puzzle-Like Seating Solutions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/twinsmdf.md) - [Gently Curved Seating Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mono-chair-collection.md) - [Single-Mold Bold Seatings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/uno-collection-1.md) - [Modular Knit Seating Systems](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/knit-one.md) - [Versatile Dynamic Armchair Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dynamic-armchair.md) - [Modular Seating Design Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pla-modular-chair.md) - [Modern Multifunctional Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/campeggi.md) - [Structurally Complex Chair Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-arch-chair.md) - [Playful Modular Kids Sofas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/twiny-sofa-system.md)
