Do you live somewhere teeny-tiny, where anything that takes up valuable floor space needs to prove its worth?
If so, you’ll want this bit of furniture, which has an impressive 14 different functions.
The wooden contraption, named R.Ppoid, is the creation of 22-year-old student Madhur Sharma, from Noida, Uttar Pradesh, India.
Madhur was inspired to create the piece by the struggles of living in a small hostel room while studying architecture.
For £350, you’d get the R.Poid, which serves as a chair, a table, a plant enclosure, and a TV unit, to name just a few of its functions.
Madhur spent two years designing the prototype, finding time after his lectures to work on the project.
The furniture’s 14 functions:
‘The furniture is very space efficient, minimal, multifunctional and sustainable,’ said Madhur.
‘My hostel room was so small that it could not accommodate all the furniture I wanted.
‘I have always been a creative person and this gave me the opportunity to design furniture that could serve many purposes and fit into a corner when not in use.
‘When arranged as a block, it takes about one cubic foot of space.
‘And just as easily, you can turn it into a lounge chair to read a book on, a study table during work hours, a coffee table and just about anything you would like in a room.’
He’s now selling the furniture in India, but sadly, it’s not available to order worldwide just yet.
