What's Going on in the Furniture World?

Posted by Jenna Levy on 31st Jul 2015

Here at Decibel Designs, we're obsessed with furniture. You've probably figured that out by now. Day in and day out, we're scouring our design plans, and trade news sources. We're obsessed with the aesthetic and the formula, with the craftsmanship, the durability, the utmost quality of materials. They should be premium, they should be well-priced, they should last you for generations and you should want to look upon your furniture with affection each and every day.

In order to accomplish this, we are vigilant in keeping up with industry news. We want to know what our competition is doing, what our consumers want and need, and the best way for us to remain ahead of all industry innovation curves. We don't believe that there's a crux or a pinnacle in this industry. We will continue to evolve, to grow and to supply you with our best. 

So what are the stories trending in the furniture world right now? First of all...Casual furniture is in. Basic, contemporary pieces of furniture are more popular than ever. Period pieces, vintage pieces, antique pieces just aren't as popular in this market, although their beauty remains the same. There is a still a great demand for them in certain countries and with certain audiences, but for the masses, it's all about a modern look and feel these days. This is partly due to their extensive upkeep. It's also due to rapid depreciation. Pieces like our Bookcase 31" High are timeless because they're so universal, as is a lot of causal furniture. It works across your interior design scheme, whatever that may be. 

Interestingly, custom upholstery is on the up-and-up, with many customers taking the extra time and effort to install unique textiles into their homes and businesses. This is bedding, this is curtains, this is custom pillows on the couch next to your newest Decibel piece. Luckily for you, all of our pieces are available in a variety of beautiful premium finishes so you can complement them with whatever pattern you see fit.

There are a lot of new players on the furniture scene. This is great news for our customers because we want to offer you an abundance of options. Consider Decibel Designs one of them as we continue to grow. You get the best of both worlds because you get the speed and quality of a huge corporation with the personal customer service experience of a smaller custom retailer. So lucky. 

Furniture is an up-and-up industry, no matter the economy. Everyone wants their home or business to be functional, to be comfortable, to be beautiful. Science has proven over and over again that beautiful surroundings encourage a better life, in many different facets. The issue at hand isn't supplying furniture to the masses, it's giving our customers, our family, the most beautiful furniture we can for the lowest price. We promise that this will continue to be our guarantee to you.
