At the Salone Internationaledel Mobile di Milano in recent years, we can feel the return of the plastic furniture trend. Plastic furniture has been popular overseas, particularly in Europe, where it is especially popular with the young people who like to turn their homes into a style of simplicity and light up their indoor spaces with colorful, transparent plastic furniture.
Plastic is a “Chameleon” in material world. It shrinks or expands with temperature; it can become soft or hard; it has shape memory. It can be very structurally strong despite its light weight; its thickness can be reduced to the Angstrom (one ten-billionth of a meter); it can be very smooth or very rough; it can be elastic or as hard as a rock. Compared with wooden or metal furniture, plastic furniture features strong plasticity, that is, it can be made into various shapes and come in multiple colors; used with other furniture, it can beautify the living space. Most importantly, it is recyclable for minimal environmental impact – This is undoubtedly an advantage, drawing more and more attention from designers and manufacturers of furniture.
Some excellent designers have incorporated their avant-garde design philosophy into plastic furniture. By combining the practicality of furniture with aesthetics, they provide us with not only some everyday necessities but also aesthetic works of art. Plastic furniture represents not just low cost; it also means uniqueness, style, and it adds fun in our living. Obviously, plastic furniture has a rosy future.
