One of the fastest growing trends in furniture and interior décor in recent years is ‘multi-functional furniture’. Combining design with functional benefits becomes increasingly necessary as city populations surge to millions, and accommodations turn into so-called micro-apartments.
Optimizing your living spaces
Versatile solutions and designs allow residents to enjoy a high level of comfort – even in the tiniest of homes – and often in extremely graceful and stylish ways.
In so many words, multi-functional furniture is designed to fulfill more than one task or purpose, and at the same time maximize the use of the available space. Flexibility is an absolute keyword here.
Create flexibility by adding movement
Movement systems in micro-apartment furniture are becoming a more natural and rather obvious part of modern living in metropolitan areas. As a manufacturer of high-quality electric actuator solutions for adjustable furniture, LINAK follows the evolution of functional design closely. We know that electric actuators not only provide the luxury of smart and smooth moving furniture. They also save you the work of manually moving and turning a chair into a bed or a coffee table into a dining table.
