the bed ... by mukul pandey from india

The effort has been to bring about a change in the lifestyle of the student; vice versa, the bed adapts beautifully to the frequent whims of a student. The element of playfulness especially appeals to the teenagers who can put it to different uses, not just for sleeping.

The three identical modular units can be used straight up or upside down, with ample storage at the bottom. A simple key-hole detail on each leg attaches or detaches the units. The removable trays at the bottom of each unit enable the user to make herself comfortable in the concavity of the unit; an ideal position to relax, read or work on the laptop.

Taken separately, the three units transform into chairs with the slats providing comfortable seating. A good idea for a gathering of friends, where one of the units acts as the centre table. The use of natural wood, some exposed bolts – the bed becomes an attractive and eye – catching furniture that scores high on aesthetics also. Modular units mean easy stackability also, with the bottom trays removed.
