Made from a rich brown leather, the pieces fit seamlessly into modern and traditional spaces alike -- something that's made simple by its subtle and shapely design. Holding up the well-cushioned seat and backrest are steel legs, which allows the mass of the stuffed leather to overflow invitingly. In addition to the shape and color of the Round Collection, the chairs and couches garner their punching bag inspiration from the durability of the design -- maintained by the [thick high-end leather](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/parka-sofa) that's nearly impossible to cause damage to. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.1/10 - Popularity: 75% | Activity: 41% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Vintage-inspired Furniture:** Opportunity to create unique furniture designs using vintage items as inspiration. - **Durability and Style:** Opportunity to create furniture that is both durable and stylish, following the lead of the Rondo Collection's design. - **Subtle and Shapely Designs:** Opportunity to create furniture with a simple yet elegant design that can fit into any interior space, similar to the Rondo Collection pieces. ### Where This Applies - **Furniture Design:** Designers can incorporate vintage and durable materials into their furniture collections, such as the leather and steel used in the Rondo Collection. - **Interior Design:** Interior designers can embrace subtle and shapely designs in furniture and decor to create a cohesive and elegant interior space, similar to the Rondo Collection pieces. - **Fashion Design:** Fashion designers can draw inspiration from the vintage and durable materials used in the Rondo Collection to create unique and stylish fashion pieces. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Pod-Inspired Bulbous Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pod-collection.md) - [Ribbed-Cushioned Couches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/note-design.md) - [Modern Cushioned Outdoor Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pod-outdoor-seating.md) - [Rippled Modular Furniture Systems](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/puffa-furniture.md) - [Bubbly Boucle Furniture Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/prostoria-buffa-collection.md) - [Dynamic Furniture Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tom-dixon-fat-and-plump.md) - [Plush Sculptural Lounge Sofas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rokko.md) - [Smart Bulbous Seating Solutions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/buffo.md) - [Mochi-Inspired Seating Lines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mochiinspired-seating.md)
