Trend #2 Slim & Sleek
21
The need for space-saving is prominent due to changes in room size, living dynamics and the belief that less is more.
Thanks to technological solutions the needs for storage, such as music and books, has declined. This has lead to the trend in sleek and slim furniture design, which has created a challenge for manufacturers as they must interpret these trends and adapt to meet these expectations.

Optically thinner design
Slim and sleek looks don’t have to require new materials.By simply cutting in a certain way, you can create theimpression of a thinner board. Look at this example,H3420 ST36 Thermo Pine has been cut at a 45-degree angle to give the impression that it is very thin, while retaining allstrength properties required for the application.

Five-piece door
The five-piece door is a classic design which can be produced with little manufacturing know-how. This idea gives the opportunity to create doors that look and feel like real timber and at a price point that is very competitive against foils, real timber or veneer.

Trio door
The trio door offers an even sleeker look. This new idea can be implemented with existing materials which can create new possibilities for design, giving you the opportunity to up-sell and increase margins. Within a kitchen or bedroom, making the door from the same material as the cabinet will also provide a co-ordinated look, adding to the value.

New uses for familiar materials
Materials that are used in alternative application areascan inspire slim and sleek design. Take Compact Laminatefor instance, a popular product for bathrooms due to itsmoisture resistant properties, incredibly strong and slim.
In this instance, 10 mm thick EGGER Compact Laminate,W1000 Premium White is used in a matt texture (ST9) toframe the storage units in an office. It gives a sleek look towhat would otherwise be a bulky storage item. The design ofthe doors using H3344, Highline Oak continues the sleek,linear look.
Decors shown:H3344 ST36, Highline Oak, in combination with W1000 ST9, Premium White.
