The future of furniture

Imagine that 20 years ago someone would have told you your music, car insurance, airline and hotel cards, stocks, books, and shoes suitable for purchase on a computer in your pocket. You no agent or intermediary between you and the stock market or the airline or insurance. And you know that you need to do any comparative research to complete the transaction within minutes ... in my pajamas! She said that people were. Dream

Well, lately I've dreamed of. When my generation (the baby boom generation) is done in his years of post-nest more and less of our disposable income goes for goods such as furniture. Instead, once by the college for children, our one-dollar return to strengthen our retirement accounts, and then to travel.

Our absence leaves the future of home textile consumption of future generations: Gen-X, Y, and now the Millennials.This generation, many of whom grew up with a phone as a birthright, have no qualms about not sitting on a sofa before buying it. This generation that companies like Zappos online shoe retailer on the map. They have grown into a clearinghouse eBay monolithic everything from rare coins and dolls, cars and airplanes.

Buy shoes online also try without them? Certainly, this generation of reconciling the relatively benign incident returnsomething with great comfort performance of their multi-tasking. Remember, these "kids" watch TV wearing a live chat on the computer, responding to a friend a text message from your smartphone to read Facebook and do homework at the same time! This power user of all things tech drive the explosive growth of online furniture.

All this is good news for the ailing economy. But the snail pace of the fashion industry of origin can keep us movingpresence of a fully realized online a bit 'longer, but eventually change. The 'early adopters "may unfortunately be some ridiculous, and perhaps a game from traditional forms of distribution, such as walk-in furniture stores. However, the momentum towards the adoption of mobile online sale inevitable and move forward. Crate & Barrel, Pottery Barn, Williams Sonoma Home, and other large furniture retailers report faster than expected growth in online environments.

TheUltra-Lux apply online retailer adds http://www.gilt.com Home Fashion significant growth year on its website by invitation only. Gilt is an online retailer of luxury fashion and jewelry. At one point, and need, Home Fashion Market is the perfect vehicle to remove the various consumer web layers between the producer and later. This course will spell bad news for the brokerage. What to do about it is another argument to saywhole.

The Online Home Furnishing future also suggests a new egalitarianism for the small, independent interior designers. In the past, not small or "home" for a designer was ridiculous: a personnel department and heavy and B: the product does not fit. Most if not all, were higher than retail (which might make its customers), commercial and showrooms, which are not prohibited retail, but not a deal.

able with the advent of online shopping, designers, prioritycan not meet the minimum requirements of contracts are better than the retail price and quick responses from the factories. The set of design advantages. The new system will allow them to buy what they want when they want it. No need to try different catalogs, just the thing to grind, if you have found the keyword search is in milliseconds.

Another component is that of comfort and speed, designers can acquire that when their time allows. This means thatemployees who now do their homework and that the other three, can be purchased for day and night. So when the night work in it at home with a cup of tea and slippers or office with a glass of wine can not carry their purchases on their program the factory or sales representative.

This is truly a new world trade. But do not worry! We have nothing to watch, but positive data, to show that its working methods in almost all areas of consumption. The market will always be neededsystem efficiency. You will come to tolerate up to a better model. We are here now. How long will the adjustment to industry leadership and a willingness to break with old forms. If we keep our customers in mind, the change will come sooner than expected we could.
