The emergence of clutter-reducing items illustrates a shift in consumer behavior toward products that increase overall productivity.

2. Convertible Furniture - Convertible furnishings are wonderful solutions for tight spaces, and the SwitchTop Table would prove particularly helpful for those who have work to do at home.
3. Space-saving Design - As the world population continues to rise, so too will shoebox condos and similar small living spaces; but with furniture such as multifunctional tables, such changes won't be felt as drastically as it did in the beginning.
Industry Implications
