Panel furniture is known for its clean lines, monochromatic designs, and spatial patterns. Its affordability has long made it a dominant force in the furniture market. As living spaces grow larger, people are no longer satisfied with basic furniture and instead seek variety and personal expression. This shift has led to a trend of high-end panel furniture brands gaining more market share. Major brands now focus on minimalistic, nature-inspired designs, incorporating geometric curves to cater to both modern and traditional tastes. As a result, the value of panel furniture has increased significantly, and it's no longer seen as low-end or cheap.
This year, panel furniture has undergone several notable changes:
**Natural Wood Tones Take Center Stage**
Although panel furniture still follows a minimalist approach, color choices have become bolder. One of the main reasons for its popularity is the wide range of veneers that offer diverse colors and textures. In the past, light-colored panels dominated the market, but this year, many manufacturers are returning to the natural wood tones of different species. For example, some brands are reviving the original cherry wood color, showcasing clear and natural grain patterns that give a solid wood feel. Other options include dark purple, brown, white, orange, and blue, creating a vibrant palette. However, when choosing colored furniture, it’s important to pay attention to the paint finish and edge sealing to avoid substandard products. A set of bedroom furniture can cost over 10,000 yuan.
**Material and Edge Sealing Ensure Environmental Safety**
Don’t assume all panel furniture is harmful. Some high-quality panel furniture uses eucalyptus wood from European plantations, combined with real wood veneer that preserves the natural grain. These materials are processed using UV technology, with seven layers of anti-UV varnish that enhance durability and aesthetics. The edges are sealed neatly, ensuring safety and compliance with environmental standards.
**Combination of Materials Brings Freshness**
Traditionally, panel furniture focused on combining wood and panels. This year, a wider range of materials is being used—such as metal, glass, plastic, rattan, and fabric. The combination of stainless steel and panels or glass and sheets has become popular, adding transparency and visual interest. This trend reflects the growing diversity in furniture materials and is likely to shape future market preferences.
**Easy Assembly and Disassembly**
One of the biggest advantages of panel furniture is its ease of assembly and disassembly. This year, manufacturers have optimized the design to allow greater flexibility. Consumers can mix and match pieces as needed, making it easier to rearrange their space and refresh their home environment. The quality of hardware is crucial here, as good components ensure smooth and reliable connections.
**Cherry Wood: A Timeless Choice**
Cherry wood, sourced from cold regions in Northern Europe and North America, is known for its hardness and fine texture. It starts with a light red tone that darkens over time. Some manufacturers dye it darker to prevent this change, which can be disappointing for those who appreciate the natural aging process of the wood.
**Nordic Style: Embracing Individuality**
The Nordic style emphasizes simplicity and practicality, influencing later movements like minimalism and postmodernism. Its key feature is flexibility, allowing consumers to personalize their furniture. With tools like the "Furnish" software, users can customize countertops, handles, finishes, and colors to create a unique look. Designers predict that the market will soon move away from strict minimalism toward warmer, more personalized styles, with bold colors and accessories playing a bigger role.
