The world of design and furniture is very much related to current events in everyday life in the worlds of economy, society, health, security and more.
The process, which began several years ago and makes contemporary and unique design accessible to the masses, seems to be well-established and legitimized by both designers and customers.
A few years ago it was the process of prestige for the masses that created a perceptual change.
Design houses have realized that it is impossible to prevent the masses from designing contemporary and fashionable design and that all lovers of fashionable design trends should be allowed to purchase a design item and furniture at affordable prices.
At that time it was possible to see various design houses presenting entire collections of design and furniture items at affordable prices, a trend that was later established under the name design as is - furniture items presented to the customer as they were without being able to upgrade with other fabrics and raw materials and accordingly offered cheaper prices. Designed "to measure".

From a choice of ecological worldview or such that places more emphasis on point functionality.
Other trends such as Affordable Housing around the world have also made it clear that there are entire populations that need to be cared for in contemporary residences at affordable prices, whether it is saturated construction or private construction.
It is a whole world of concepts that merge into one reality, where mostly young couples seek a solution to their housing needs but do not want to give up design at different levels and these too require relevant solutions in terms of design and price.
In Israel, the trend of affordable design is gaining both in the field of interior design of houses and apartments and in terms of the existing supply in the market.

The longing for the familiar and the known softens the uncertainty that now exists in the world and this style is comfortable and comforting.
