Sleek Cycle-Displaying Shelves

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

This Postfossil Creation Showcases Books, Bikes and Shoes

— June 10, 2013 — Art & Design
Avid cyclists will rejoice to learn that Postfossil has created a sleek set of shelves designed specifically to showcase bicycles. The shelf is simple in appearance, made of plain planks of wood brought together to form a rectangular shape.

The difference between the Shoes, Books and Bike Storage from regular shelves is its gigantic backless rectangular compartment big enough to store a bike. A clamp extends from one of the compartment's sides that grips the bike's back wheel, holding it in place. Three smaller compartments are located just below the bike for anything from books to shoes.

Bike owners who pride themselves on their retro-style or banana-seated cycles will find this shelf the perfect addition to their living area and a great excuse to show off their chic cycles.
Trend Themes
1. Bike-displaying Shelves - Designing and creating shelves that double up as a bike rack is a trend that solves limited-space problems while also adding a unique aesthetic appearance and creating an opportunity for the furniture industry to come up with more innovative and functional designs.
2. Multi-functional Furniture - The integration of bike storage options within furniture pieces is a growing trend that highlights the desire for multi-functional furniture pieces, enabling furniture companies to combine product functionality and aesthetic appearance to give customers a more unique experience.
3. Eco-friendly Furniture - Creating furniture using environmentally sustainable materials such as wood is a trend that furniture manufacturers should consider, as it promotes eco-friendliness and can also cater to customers who prefer to purchase environmentally friendly products.
Industry Implications
1. Furniture - The furniture industry can benefit from the trend of bike-displaying shelves by creating more innovative furniture designs that combine product functionality and aesthetic appearances to provide customers with unique experiences and efficient space management.
2. Bicycles - The bike industry can benefit from the trend of bike-displaying shelves by offering customization options to customers who want a bike that is both stylish and functional and by promoting the trend of owning a bike as a fashionable accessory.
3. Environmental Sustainability - The trend of eco-friendly furniture creation benefits the environmental sustainability industry by promoting the use of sustainable materials and production practices, thereby encouraging more companies to adopt environmentally sustainable practices.
