[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Jonghwa] As COVID-19 prolongs, homes are changing. The Seoul National University Consumer Trend Analysis Center identified Omni-Layered Homes, which add new functions to the home, as one of this year’s trends in "Trend Korea 2021."

Omni-Layered Homes refer to diversifying the home’s functions according to individual tastes and personalities, much like layering clothes. For example, decorating a space for efficient remote work while also serving as a place for sleep and rest. It also includes creating home gyms for exercising indoors, home cafes for drinking coffee, or home theaters to reduce outdoor activities.

Interest in furniture has also increased to create expanded indoor spaces. According to Statistics Korea, last year’s retail sales of furniture reached 10.1865 trillion KRW (provisional figures for November and December), a 23.8% increase compared to the previous year. The sales exceeded 10 trillion KRW for the first time ever, maintaining sales in the 900 billion KRW range in the fourth quarter. In response, the furniture industry is continuously launching new concept furniture items aligned with the Omni-Layered Home trend.
