# Fold-Flat Chairs Ufuk Keskin & Efecem Kutuk's Sheetseat is Flat-Pack Seating By Rachel | Published 2009-07-31 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ufuk-keshin-sheetseat References: [notcot.org](http://www.notcot.org/post/23679/) & [noquedanblogs](http://noquedanblogs.com/diseno/sheetseat/) The idea that a sheet of wood that measures 3/4” thickness can become a usable chair blows my mind slightly, but that’s exactly what the Sheetseat by Ufuk Keskin is. The Sheetseat looks like a [piece of cardboard](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fold-stool), but is in fact plywood that is cut so that it can go from a perfectly flat piece of wood to an unfolded chair. This would definitely make for [easy storage and transport](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bug-collection-1), as you could stack them up without issue. Take a look at this great [space saving idea](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/walle-stool). ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.0/10 - Popularity: 52% | Activity: 91% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - 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 ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Flat-pack Furniture:** The trend of creating flat-pack furniture designs to optimize storage and transportation opportunities in products. - **Sustainable Design:** The trend of using more environmentally friendly materials in product design to meet the growing consumer demand for eco-friendly options. - **Minimalist Design:** The trend of embracing simple and sleek design strategies, such as the use of modular pieces and flat planes. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Furniture Industry:** The furniture industry can embrace sheetseat's disruptive innovation and use them as a stepping stone to redesign and market more functioning, storage-optimized, easily transportable furniture. - **Architecture Industry:** The architecture industry can apply sheetseat's design principles and adapt flexible, adaptable elements in their structures, especially in small living spaces and temporary structures. - **Event Planning Industry:** The event planning industry can use sheetseat's fold-flat chair design to reduce the bulk of seating during events, optimize storage and transportation, and reinvent event floor design using ultra-minimalist conceptualization. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Ultra-Minimalist Folding Chairs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/notch-folding-chair.md) - [Sliding Flatpack Seating Solutions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/folio-chair.md) - [Singular Metal Sheet-Made Chairs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fold-chair.md) - [Monomaterial Aluminum Folded Chairs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/foldseat.md) - [Single-Piece Wooden Chair Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/slide-table-1.md) - [Minimal Stackable Chair Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/omega-chair.md) - [Flat-Packed Wooden Stool](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/flat-stool-concept.md) - [Industrial Flatpack Chair Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tekron-folding-chair.md) - [High-Quality Flatpack Chair Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pagoda-chair.md)
