for my future employer!!
this is the latest project that I developed for a Furniture Design Award in Singapore 2013
The main concept of this project is to have one piece of furniture with more than one function.
In a world where space is a growing issue for more and more people, for students, professionals, and young couples living in small accommodation in cities, this piece helps to save space. It can be used as a chair, as a bench for two people to sit on, and as a table for studying or sharing a meal by sitting on the cushions provided with the design.
The piece can be easily mass manufactured using CNC (computer numerical control) and can be transported and sold as a flatpack. The user can put it together with no glue or screws, just with the help of dowels and a hammer. Instead of hinges, the piece has straps that hold both parts together and enable the chair to unfold as a table. The design is also an environmental product because it is made of MDF or plywood, which are both recycled materials.
