Fold away furniture


Core77 recently had a few blog postings about folding furniture. The designs are well planned out. One of the pieces of furniture is concidered a "folding kitchen". It has a sink, an oven top, shelves, a cook book holder (for the correct page that you are following), etc. Everything can be neatly packed together and closed into a moveable wooden box on wheels. The second piece of furniture was a desk. It opened up into two pieces with shelves, drawers, and a table top which could hold a laptop. Again, this piece of furniture could be closed into a wooden box on wheels that could be hidden away in a closet. The third piece of furniture was larger... but considerably compact. It had a bed with shelves and drawers.
What a genius invention. The fold away bed reminds me of the old motel beds that can be folded back into the wall to allow for more space. Each piece of furniture looks so perfect for a small apartment with college student who need extra space... or for people who own insanely small apartments in an expensive city.
