"In recent years, the Chinese furniture industry has experienced continuous innovation and upgrades in design, production, and sales, catering to the preferences of the younger generation."
The concept of "comprehensive home furnishings" is gradually becoming popular. Furnishing consumption covers various fields such as home appliances, furniture, home textiles, and home decoration. The "comprehensive home furnishings" aims to provide consumers with a one-stop, integrated, and all-encompassing home consumption solution.
In Jinan city, east China’s Shandong province, a “Super Experience Center” has been opened where users can generate a “Smart Home” plan in 15 seconds using an intelligent design program.
At the Daeshin Home Industrial Design Center in Zhengzhou city, central China’s Henan province, consumers can put on VR glasses to “step into” their new homes, “place” their preferred household items inside, experience different decoration styles, and select their favored decoration plans.
As the population ages, furniture designed for the elderly is becoming a new consumption focus. Products such as massage chairs, health care mattresses, and smart bathroom appliances, tailored to the needs of seniors, are favored by elderly care institutions and senior households.
Green and eco-friendly products are also increasingly becoming the preferred choice for consumers.
