			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Over recent years, the way in which businesses operate has become much more relaxed as well as open plan.  Modular seating has become more and more popular as many companies have recognised that informal office breakout areas are beneficial in encouraging employees to relax and build good working relationships, and that many meetings taking place within the business are small and informal.  These breakout spaces are always popular and well-used, creating a central hub in the office and a relaxed and inviting environment.</p>
<p>If you are looking to source modular seating, low stools, bar stools, tables and chairs which are suitable for a break out area and manufactured to very high standards, with commercial use in mind, take a look at some of our suggestions below.  To see our full range please take a look at our website, and if you need any further advice don’t hesitate to contact us.</p>
<p><a title="Jamie Modular Seating Range" href="http://www.danetti.com/modular-seating/jamie-modular-seating" target="_blank"><strong>Jamie Modular Seating Range</strong></a></p>
<div id="attachment_2351" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 160px"><a href="http://www.danetti.com/modular-seating/jamie-modular-seating"><img class="size-thumbnail wp-image-2351" title="Jamie Modular Seating Range" src="http://www.danetti.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/jamie_modular_seating_8_medium-150x150.jpg" alt="Jamie Modular Seating Range" width="150" height="150" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Jamie Modular Seating Range from £279.00</p></div>
<p>Whether you have a small space in your premises that needs some stylish seating, or have a whole building to fit out, the Jamie Modular Seating Range is a great flexible solution.  There are 11 components in the range, including concave and convex seats, which means you can position your seating on a curve.<br />
Whichever combination you go for, you&#8217;ll have a contemporary and up-market seating area that&#8217;s comfortable too.  And the range of colours is stunning, with 22 shades of faux leather, all of them durable and hardy enough to withstand the demands of a commercial environment.</p>
<p><a title="Pop Modular Seating" href="http://www.danetti.com/casual-furniture/pop-modular-seating" target="_blank"><strong>Pop Modular Seating</strong></a></p>
<div id="attachment_2352" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 310px"><a href="http://www.danetti.com/casual-furniture/pop-modular-seating"><img class="size-medium wp-image-2352" title="Pop Modular Seating" src="http://www.danetti.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/pop_modular_seating_1_wide-300x161.jpg" alt="Pop Modular Seating" width="300" height="161" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Pop Modular Seating £389.00</p></div>
<p>The Pop is a funky modular seating range where choice is paramount.  It is upholstered in faux leather and you can make this chair look just how you want it to. Choose the colour of the front of the chair and another colour for the side of the chair &#8211; use the drop down menus to see the options available.<br />
Not only does the Pop look brilliant in break out areas, it is fabulous for a waiting area in a restaurant or salon, in reception areas, or in a creative business.<br />
We love the chunky and solid look of the Pop and its smooth curves and deep padding means it both looks great and feels comfy to sit on. If you need a few seats, you can position them in a straight line, right next to each other, or on a curve, perhaps separated by small tables.</p>
<p><a title="Drum Low Round Stools" href="http://www.danetti.com/low-stools/drum-low-round-bar-stool" target="_blank"><strong>Drum Low Round Stools</strong></a></p>
<div id="attachment_2354" class="wp-caption alignright" style="width: 310px"><a href="http://www.danetti.com/low-stools/drum-low-round-bar-stool"><img class="size-medium wp-image-2354" title="Drum Low Round Stools" src="http://www.danetti.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/drum_low_round_bar_stool_2_wide-300x161.jpg" alt="Drum Low Round Stools" width="300" height="161" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Drum Low Round Stools from £109.00</p></div>
<p>The Drum Low Round Stools are a classic cylindrical low stool made in the UK and the ideal companion for modular seating. They are finished to a high standard, ideal for demanding commercial environments, and perfect for casual seating.</p>
<p>These low round stools are available in a variety of sizes and can be finished in a wide range of funky colours in either micro-suede or faux leather.<br />
<a title="Cube Low Stools" href="http://www.danetti.com/modular-seating/cube-stool-900s" target="_blank"><br />
</a><strong><a title="Cube Low Stools" href="http://www.danetti.com/modular-seating/cube-stool-900s" target="_blank">Cube Low Stools </a>  </strong></p>
<div id="attachment_2355" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 310px"><a href="http://www.danetti.com/modular-seating/cube-stool-450"><img class="size-medium wp-image-2355" title="Cube Low Stools" src="http://www.danetti.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/cube_stool_450_12_wide-300x161.jpg" alt="Cube Low Stools" width="300" height="161" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Cube Low Stools from £99.00</p></div>
<p>If you prefer cube shaped stools to complement your modular seating arrangement, the Cube Seating Collection offers a range of flexible, fun and informal seating.<br />
Use it on its own to provide a small seating area in your office, shop, bar or other commercial space, or team it with other items from the Cube Collection for a customised solution.<br />
The cube stool collection comes in such a great variety of colours &#8211; with choices including tan, pink, zesty lime and royal blue, available in either faux leather or micro-suede finish. You can mix and match colours and textures to create a bespoke look, or go for a totally co-ordinated one-colour set.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Here at Danetti we&#8217;re constantly keeping our eye on emerging furniture trends coming from the big European furniture shows and glossy interior design magazines.</p>
<p>We keep these in mind when buying our furniture, always making sure that we can offer you both cutting edge options and simple contemporary classics.</p>
<p>If you need a little inspiration, then these are the top furniture trends which we see coming through strongly during 2010.</p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<div id="attachment_935" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 310px"><strong><strong><a href="http://www.danetti.com/casual-furniture/soho-modular-chair"><img class="size-medium wp-image-935" title="soho_modular_chair_4_wide" src="http://www.danetti.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/soho_modular_chair_4_wide-300x161.jpg" alt="Soho modular chair" width="300" height="161" /></a></strong></strong><p class="wp-caption-text">Soho modular chair</p></div>
<p><strong>1. Sectional and modular sofas</strong></p>
<p>Once upon a time modular, configurable seating was the preserve of commercial premises. But this year it&#8217;s proving popular as a great flexible option for cost-conscious home-owners too. Modular sofas are great for people who like to move their furniture around a lot because these items can be easily reconfigured to give a new look. The other advantage of modular seating is that often it can be assembled on a curve or a tight angle, to make the most of your available space.</p>
<p><strong>2. Bright sofas</strong></p>
<p>While neutral sofas will always be popular, we&#8217;re seeing the growing popularity of zingy, brightly-coloured sofas, teamed with neutral cushions &#8211; a reverse of the old look. It&#8217;s certainly a modern look and can look really striking with plain white or even clashing colour walls.</p>
<p><strong>3. Leather upholstery</strong></p>
<p>Still as smart and classy a choice as ever, leather furniture is a purchase that just doesn&#8217;t disappoint and keeps its appeal even when it gets old. In particular we&#8217;re seeing a rise in the popularity of coloured leather on bar stools, dining chairs and sofas.</p>
<p><strong>4. Grey as the key neutral</strong></p>
<p>Most colour schemes need a neutral shade to tie them down, ground them a bit. This year it seems to be grey that&#8217;s the perfect antidote to the bright colours. Chose your shade to complement the tone of your colour scheme &#8211; from elephant grey to pewter, there&#8217;s one that will look great.</p>
<p><strong>4. Suede or microsuede</strong></p>
<p>In these harsh economic times, we all want a bit of luxury and comfort. That&#8217;s what you get from suede or the faux alternative, microsuede. It&#8217;s soft, comfortable and sophisticated at the same time. As with leather, bright colours will be dominant.</p>
<p><strong>2. Winged chairs</strong></p>
<p>&#8230; or armchairs to you and I. This year, this classic style is hotter than ever. We approve &#8211; winged chairs are comfortable and cozy and look elegant at the same time.</p>
<p><strong>5. Media centers</strong></p>
<p>Perhaps because television design is changing, the furniture we use to house our TVs and other media is changing too. The trend is for chic, modern furniture to tidy everything away.</p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<div id="attachment_934" class="wp-caption alignright" style="width: 310px"><strong><strong><a href="http://www.danetti.com/casual-furniture/harris-arm-chair"><img class="size-medium wp-image-934" title="harris_arm_chair_1_medium" src="http://www.danetti.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/harris_arm_chair_1_medium-300x300.jpg" alt="Harris arm chair - a return to the traditional" width="300" height="300" /></a></strong></strong><p class="wp-caption-text">Harris arm chair - a return to the traditional</p></div>
<p><strong>6. Traditional furniture design</strong></p>
<p>Maybe it&#8217;s the economy that&#8217;s causing this trend &#8211; we&#8217;re hankering after a little security and buying into traditional, classic design What&#8217;s happening is a reinterpretation of the past – traditional with a twist if you like &#8211; manufacturers are taking old styles and using modern fabrics and quirky features to bring them up to date.</p>
<p><strong>7. The chaise</strong></p>
<p>We&#8217;re seeing a new interpretation of the traditional chaise longue with clean lines and modern fabrics such as leather taking the place of more ornate, fabric-covered versions. They&#8217;re great for a home setting &#8211; every living room should have one, but they also work well in a commercial space, perhaps in a shop or hotel lounge.</p>
<p><strong>8. Round ended tables</strong></p>
<p>A move away from the hard edges of the traditional table, towards a curvier, more interesting table shape. Materials include glass, wood and laminated plywood.</p>
<p><strong>9. Green fabrics</strong></p>
<p>Maybe to reflect the trend towards eco furnishings, it seems that the colour green has become trendy too. From bold block colours to fun leaf patterns, there&#8217;s plenty to choose from.</p>
<p><strong>10. Stools</strong></p>
<p>Perhaps because we&#8217;re living more casual lives these days, with informal seating areas in kitchens and kitchen-diners becoming the norm, the popularity of bar stools is on the rise. Opt for quirky, brightly-coloured stools to make this a modern look.</p>
