Our take

Oliver Space brings a novel concept to home furnishing. Knowing how often people make furniture purchases only to find it's a bad fit, or that they can’t keep it due to another move, the company has developed three flexible monthly plans which make interior design easier.

A number of solutions have emerged to enable consumers to make better furniture purchase choices, such as 3D virtual shopping experiences, and AR apps from big retailers such as IKEA. Oliver Space, however, stands out for offering next-level flexibility. With choices to rent, buy or flexi-swap, the company creates a fully circular consumer furnishing experience, tapping into a market of people who are on the move, or landlords offering their rentals fully furnished.

The company has raised impressive funds towards expanding operations and business reach, offering its services in an increasing number of US cities. With the rising interest in flexible and sustainable shopping, Oliver Space occupies a promising space in the market.
