Looking back at each decade, I feel both ‘older’ and ‘younger’, I see the change in my features, the change in my way of life, the change in my personality and the experience itched on my face. I am grateful for the life I have lived thus far and excited for the life I am yet to live. 
••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

2026 - 39, (Home, England), I am ready for this final year before my 40s but also ready for this next decade. 
2016 - 29, (Oslo, Norway), this decade was about self discovery and building the life I dreamt about. The life that I am super proud of and truly grateful to be living. This decade, I built my financial life and in later years choose to heal from the trauma gained in the last decade and now I feel well equipped for the future. 
2006 - 19, (Glasgow, Scotland), I thought I was grown (look at the cheekbones 🤣🤣) and ready for the world, chiiiild was I wrong, let’s just say, I am still resolving the trauma the decade brought me but I am grateful because I met my best friends and made decisions for the future I wanted to have. (Spoiler alert - I did better than I dreamed). 
1996 - 9, (Home, Zambia) this was my birthday but my little sister insisted she had to be the one in the middle. The only way we knew whose birthday it was, was by standing in the middle but this year I remember baby sister crying her eyes out and refusing 🤨
1988 - 9 months, (Chililabombwe, Zambia) although my mother looks tired and traumatised😟, I know I was loved and happy.

What Are the Common Trends in Customisable Furniture Today?

Customisable furniture is a big trend in home design these days. There are so many choices being made. This is thanks to advancements in technology, materials, construction techniques, and design layouts that are trending today. It is easy for people with every taste and budget to find what they want. The combination of versatility and functionality makes it easy for people to optimize the look. Below are some popular trends in customizable furniture shaping today’s market.

Customizable furniture is a big trend in home design these days. There are so many choices being made. This is thanks to advancements in technology, materials, construction techniques, and design layouts that are trending today. It is easy for people with every taste and budget to find what they want.

 Home Staging

People sometimes build their entire homes around particular pieces of customized furniture. They aim to make an impression on potential buyers or renters. For example, having unique furniture in the living room can help a home show better. This is beneficial, especially now that online home-shopping sites make it easy for prospective buyers to look inside the homes they are interested in.

More Colors

Customized furniture is available in a much more comprehensive range of colors than it used to be. Even upholstered pieces are available in hues beyond just black or white. According to many Joybird reviews, most people like this trend. It allows them to incorporate more personality into their decorating schemes.

 Multifunctional Uses

 These days, many customized pieces of furniture have multiple uses. According to advice from Joybird customer service staff, the furniture could serve different functions depending on how you use them. For example, a sofa with a pullout bed could be handy as a guest-room option. Similarly, many dining tables double as desks with the addition of an extra surface and folding legs.

 Smaller Pieces

Variety and flexibility are not the only trends that customizable furniture is experiencing. These days, people seem to be into smaller pieces of furniture, too. For example, instead of a coffee table that dominates an entire living room, more people opt for smaller tables they can tuck into corners or along walls. At some point, this may reverse itself once again. As a result, people may start looking for larger pieces again. However, for now, it seems like small is in.

 More Functionality

Finally, customizable furniture is about more than looks these days. Many pieces of furniture are made to accomplish multiple goals at once. For example, some people choose a living room table that has storage and serves as a surface for a laptop computer. Others prefer sofas and sectionals that have pullout mattresses to be able to convert them into beds in an instant if they have unexpected guests.

People have plenty of options for choosing their custom furniture. Research has shown that many people pay less than previously for their furniture. With the innovation and creativity of these trends on the rise, people have nothing to worry about when it comes to finding their perfect furniture today.

    My living room is fairly small compared to my previous houses. I currently have a couch and recliner. But I know that when I plan on replacing the couch I want one with a chaise lounger. I would be good with an ottoman too so I can store couch blankets.

    I never really thought about trends in custom furniture, but this makes total sense particularly the smaller pieces. I think more people are going for minimalistic nowadays. We tend to do custom furniture so we can get high quality solid wood!

    I love the idea of neutral furniture and change out the colorful pillows.

    I would think having several dining tables doubling as desks would be very popular now since so many people are working from home.

    Oh cool, I didn’t know about this. We could use some new furniture. We’ve never tried to customize it.
