A/B space saving furniture by kim myung hyun

‘A/B space saving furniture’ by kim myung hyun

traditionally, the strategy to save space is by forms of stacking or folding. conceived by south korean designer kim myung hyun, her piece titled ‘A / B’ approaches storage by putting another leg into a transparent leg, which provides visual satisfaction and effective utilization of space. A & B consists of a black stand, a tea table or a stool, a desk, and a book-box.

the components can be added to each other and can also be independent, which creates approximately 20 combinations with various functions. the variety is based on the simple system of sharing the legs. the pieces of furniture are adapted to the users,  based on a systematic concept that provides possibilities for a variety of configurations and arrangements.
