So it's all about function and multi function at the moment, after featuring Studiomama last week I've been totally consumed by anything with a second function/multi storage. Again it all spans from my uni project, I'm looking at people who like design but live in shared/small accommodation, so anything that has a storage solution is on my hit list.
Can anyone recommend any products that fit this bill? Hope everyone's having a nice chilled out weekend.
Where do you find these images?! The top two are amazing, sort of retro-futuristic. Sadly i'll never have little enough stuff to live like that.
ReplyDeletebtw, i'm going to email some bloggers to see who fancies a drink or dinner on the tues of lfw - will you be around? I have to go to work during the day :(
awesome!
ReplyDeleteThese are fantastic! I hope my future home is filled with things like this.
ReplyDeleteThe brand is La Garconne :)
yes! I love this. As a minimalist, there's nothing I love more than something that serves more than one purpose.
ReplyDeleteI used to have a coffee table & the top lifted up, so you could comfortably use it as a tray for eating dinner in the living area.. so the entire inside of the table was hollow & a huge storage space. I managed to fit all of my cd cases in there.
ReplyDeletewoah, really cool!
ReplyDeleteMat, you always give me the best ideas for styling the house- I absolutely suck at interior design , but those pieces are amazing, the first one! it's so super practical and efficient ! :)
ReplyDeletei love it when things have more than one function! it's a real achievement in design.
ReplyDeleteThis pics are amazing! I want that living room and that last table! Actually, my dream house would be a small penthouse with multi functional furniture! xxx
ReplyDeleteno way all those things in the 2nd photo fit in the small arrangement in the first. so cool!

what a cool wooden bench to have out on the patio x
ReplyDeleteI can't think of anything off the top of my head but I love the idea of an office/desk area up a few steps from the living room...it compartmentalizes it nicely!
ReplyDeleteIn my bedroom at uni I've stacked up all my fave magazines to create a make-shift coffee table. it's not furniture as such but it's multiple use - bedside table and an endless supply of reading material! Claire @ Jazzpad ♥
ReplyDeleteAh, I love everything multifunctional - furniture, clothes, anything... Big fan of the 70s style, too.
ReplyDeletethe first one is soooo smart I can't even handle it. haha
ReplyDeletedoubt if I would ever implement that top one in use around my place, but it still knocks my socks off!
ReplyDeletegreat post! I love the multi function concept!
ReplyDeleteI am obsessed with the Asher Isrelow
ReplyDeletedesk, as well as the David Pickett
coffee table. There is something about melding progressive design statments and utility/functionality that peaks my interest in furniture/fashion design. Great post!
