Modernizing the usual style of patio furniture is the Terrace Chair. Designed by Kaare Bækgaard, the chair offers a new way to enjoy the beautiful outdoors.
The Terrace Chair is moulded in polyethylene and requires very little maintenance; washing it once or twice a year will keep it looking new. I think the best part of the Terrace Chair is it's ability to glow which will add a stunning and subtle touch to your summer patio hangouts.
Sit in ultra comfort while lighting the way with the Terrace Chair.
Implications - Consumers are looking for items that can complete two functions at once. Combining two different components together in one design appeals to shoppers who have hectic lifestyles. Focusing on this demographic could help a company grow their name on the market even more.
