Room in a box

Sep 8th, 2008 | By admin | Category: Featured Articles, home design

It might just look like a box to begin with, but inside there is…. wait for it an armoire, a desk, a height-adjustable stool, two more stools, a six-shelf bookcase, and a bed with a mattress. Casulo, designed by Marcel Krings & Sebastian Mühlhäuser, hides furnishings enough for an entire room in a small box that’s 80 cm x 120 cm. Two people can lift, carry, and assemble its also easy to disassemble, when it’s time to move.

It’s perfect for us ladies as each piece of furniture within the Casulo unit apparently takes only about 10 minutes to assemble and it requires no tools. It’s also green; every part of the boxes exterior is used, meaning no wasteful packaging.

Casulo won the “Abraham & David Roentgen Award” in November 2007 for its “cleverness, finesse and qualitative realisation of the idea”. It seems to be the perfect solution for frequent movers and those living in small spaces.

However, I can’t imagine that the mattress is very comfortable or it would last very long, especially round me I am so clumsy.
