The storage containers are achieved using compressed felt that gives them a slightly soft-sided construction that's inherently gentle on clothing, shoes and accessories to make them ideal for [seasonal fashions to be stowed](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rotating-shoe-rack). Each container is finished with a leather handle in order to aid grabbing them when slid underneath a bed to maximize space functionality in smaller homes or rooms. The Open Spaces Underbed Storage Bins come in sets of two and target the increasing number of consumers living in [smaller spaces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/apt-drawers) that require them to leave items that might otherwise be hidden away out in the open without looking out of place. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.6/10 - Popularity: 83% | Activity: 76% | Freshness: 9% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Modern](https://www.trendhunter.com/modern) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Stylish Organizational Solutions:** The trend of incorporating fashion-forward designs into storage solutions presents opportunities for disruptive innovation in the home organization industry. - **Compressed Felt Construction:** The trend of using compressed felt as a material for storage containers opens up innovative possibilities for creating soft-sided, gentle storage solutions. - **Maximizing Space Functionality:** The trend of maximizing space functionality in smaller homes or rooms creates opportunities for disruptive innovation in developing compact storage solutions. ### Where This Applies - **Home Organization:** The home organization industry can explore disruptive innovation by incorporating stylish designs and soft-sided construction into their storage solutions. - **Textiles and Fabrics:** The textiles and fabrics industry can seize disruptive innovation opportunities by leveraging the use of compressed felt as a material for various applications, including storage containers. - **Furniture and Interior Design:** The furniture and interior design industry can tap into disruptive innovation by creating furniture pieces that maximize space functionality, such as incorporating storage solutions underneath beds. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Adorable Luxurious Storage Compartments](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/luxurious-storage-compartment.md) - [Sustainable Plant-Based Storage Bins](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/welli-bins.md) - [Timeless Wool Storage Baskets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wool-storage-basket.md) - [Modular Bin Organizer Accessories](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/binganizer.md) - [Eco Cork Organizers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cork-box.md) - [Overhead Storage Single Beds](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/otto-cobbo-bed.md) - [Vibrant Packing Cubes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/compressible-packing-cubes.md) - [Dual-Sided Storage Benches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bond-stool-system.md) - [Modular Organization Garbage Bins](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kitchen-garbage-bins.md)
