designer's own words:
With the playfulness of a kid's toybox coupled with the sleek stylings and clean lines of contemporary electronic equipment (i.e. the toys that teenageers love to play with), the piece caters for the things that teenagers love to do like hang out with friends, listen to CD's and read magazines. It is a multifunctional piece of furniture that adapts to the needs of the teenager. In the horizontal position, it function as a magazine storage unit (mags can be stored spines-up in the compartments or draped spines-up over the rounded "fins". It also functions as a drinks table. In the standing position it serves as a CD rack and the middle portion can be pulled forward to reveal 2 spacious storage drawers. The flat top surface can accomodate a TV or CD player making it a piece that every teenager would loce to have in their bedrooms!
