# Necktie Seating The TIE Lounge Chair from Velichko Velikov Keeps Your Living Room Business Ready By Michael Hines | Published 2010-05-04 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tie-lounge-chair References: [industrialdesignserved](http://www.industrialdesignserved.com/Gallery/The-TIE-Lounge-chair/383717) & [behance.net](http://www.behance.net/vvelikov/Frame) Velichko Velikov's TIE Lounge Chair is the smartest looking piece of furniture I have ever seen. Everyone knows that the clothes make the man. Wearing a tie is like putting an exclamation point on that statement. I love wearing ties, which is why I love Velichko Velikov TIE Lounge Chair so much. The TIE Lounge Chair comes in [two variations, open and closed collar](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hidahida). The closed collar version is my favorite. I love the idea of [designing the leg of the chair](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lap-chair) as an actual tie. Velichko Velikov is revolutionizing business fashion furniture, one chair at a time. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.9/10 - Popularity: 34% | Activity: 16% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Home](https://www.trendhunter.com/home) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Fashion-inspired Furniture:** There is an opportunity to create furniture pieces that are inspired by fashion trends, such as incorporating clothing items into the design. - **Mixing Business and Home:** As more people work from home, there is an opportunity to create furniture pieces that blend office and home decor in a stylish way. - **Unique Seating Designs:** There is an opportunity to create seating that is both functional and visually appealing, such as incorporating tie designs into the legs of chairs. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Furniture Industry:** The furniture industry could benefit from incorporating fashion-inspired designs into their products. - **Home Decor Industry:** The home decor industry can develop furnishings that create a stylish balance between business and home environments. - **Fashion Industry:** The fashion industry can create a unique line of home decor items that reflect current fashion trends, such as incorporating tie elements into furniture design. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Sartorially Inspired Seating Solutions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/narinari-chair.md) - [Slick Eco-Conscious Chair Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ecoconscious-chair-design.md) - [Rope-Like Dynamic Chair Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/caterpillar-lounge.md) - [Ultra-Comfy Seating Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cushy-lounge-chair.md) - [Bungee Cord Seating Solutions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tcord-chair.md) - [Curvaceous Padded Lounge Chairs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/talk-chair.md) - [Stylish Ergonomic Office Chairs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stylish-ergonomic-office-chair.md) - [Modern Chair Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bow-chair.md) - [Cocktail-Resembling Chair Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cocktail-chair.md)
