The modular trend seems unstoppable – designers and clients are increasingly intrigued by putting together, taking apart, redesigning and changing furnishing items. Having a sofa that can be disassembled, extended to host an extra guest or shortened to take up less space perfectly reflects the type of life we lead – dynamic, constantly changing, never still. The talk is of increasingly flexible spaces, like the increasingly blurred line between indoor and outdoor spaces – the objects inside can also exist in the open air, thanks to ever more technical, high-performance materials and a style that embraces coherence between interior and outdoor environments. We’re in the era of a new customisation – smart, young, fresh, changing to adapt to every individual’s personal concept of well-being.
