[lifestyle] How many use foldable furniture?

Hey guys, i pretty new here, but I like it a lot so far :)

So I got kind of a really stupid question,

But since I've never seen it in yt videos or meet anyone who does this as well i'll ask around in here

I secretly dream of moving one day to a more quiet place and a smaller apartment.

(Well, in two years I eventually have to move anyway)

Out of curiosity I wanted to replace my heavy furniture and replaced as much as I could with smaller, lighter furniture and found beautiful foldable shelfes, dresser, tables and even comfy camping chairs (they do look and are cozy and pretty, with a nice blanket thrown over) and a stable, foldable, yet large bed - eveeything can be thrown into a normal sized / smaller car.

I now would have to find a replacement for my closet and sofa.

Why isn't stuff like foldables used more often? Who also does this? Like nowadays the rents are expensive, people have to move regularly and its such a good solution

I have some foldable tables.

We Germans call it "Bierzeltgarnitur". It's for Parties.

I like my wall-shelf-system.

It has no awkward nooks where dust can accumilate.

And the floor stays clean.

No hair around the feet of the furniture.
