Comfortable Comfort is a buzzword of the early 2000s.
People talk about comfort foods, comfort clothes and comfort furniture.
There are comfortable chairs, comfortable car seats, comfortable pens, and comfortable mattresses. The on-going emphasis on the environment and a growing reverence for nature is creating a consumer appreciation for natural wood and fibers. Basic textiles and warm-colored wood furniture with clean, simple lines are both fashionable and prevalent. Mission-style furniture, quilts, and old front porch favorites like gliders and Adirondack chairs have been coming back as reproductions.
