“We're finding that this generation of parents is invested in the quality of their products – they want to buy once and then buy better.” “Given the fast-paced world modern parents find themselves in, they want furniture they can rely on can,” commented a spokesperson from Snuz.
“In addition, more than ever, people are curating their individual styles and aesthetics and want pieces throughout the home that complement them.” “Because it's important to balance style and function, this means parents and parents-to-be do their research and invest in this Investing in purchases to ensure they are making the right choice for their little one and their style.”
The Mini-Me armchair trend was designed for both children and parents. It's about functional, stylish furniture that fits your home while addressing your children's needs.
“Multifunctional and modular designs are key to the growing appeal of children's furniture.” “For families in smaller homes or those looking to maximize space, pieces that double as storage, seating or sleeping solutions are well worth the investment” says Sebastian Clarke, senior designer at King Living.
“Families are increasingly investing in long-lasting furniture, not only to reduce waste, but also to avoid frequent replacement.” “High-quality children's furniture made from durable materials provides long-term value and reduces the need for constant updates as children grow.”
The adult nature of the Mini-Me armchair trend is also designed to keep up with children's growth. When your little one gets tired of dinosaur or princess bedrooms, they are often left with furniture that doesn't reflect their personality. Adult styles in children's sizes, on the other hand, are more timeless – they will remain stylish as your child's tastes grow and develop.
