Bed with the working area The Living Cube
German designer Till Koenneker, who lives inSwitzerland, moved into a small (by Swiss standards) studio apartment, where there was no furniture for work, rest and storage of things, of which the designer had quite a lot. So, from personal need, an idea arose to create a piece of furniture of a multifunctional design, which alone would cover several needs of a person in a living space. The result was a bed with a work area, which can be called a closet, an office, and a rack. The designer's goal was to focus on the practicality and functionality of the system, skipping any unnecessary elements. The result was furniture of a classic design, which will suit any space and life situation. After all, our housing, as a rule, is not flexible, but we can rethink the space and interior for comfortable living. Useful furniture should adapt to the needs of a specific user.The first bed with a work area, The Living Cube,made for the designer's apartment, combines several necessary functions and living areas. In fact, it is a variant of the "house within a house" concept. On the front side of the cube there is a bookcase, a niche for a TV, a coat rack, shelves for hats and shoes. On the "roof" there is a sleeping area, which can be reached using a metal ladder. The most interesting thing is hidden inside.A small, barely noticeable door leads inside the cube, where you can arrange a dressing room, a study, a library, a home cinema, or another sleeping place. It is important that this small space will be separate and closed. Thus, even in a one-room apartment you can retire to your own corner. This bed with a work area seems voluminous andit seems that it will be difficult to make a small room more spacious with its help. However, thanks to the functional use of every square centimeter of the cube, we free up the rest of the space from the need to install a wardrobe, bed, shelving unit, etc. The design of the cube is dynamic and easily customizable, the customer can receive furniture with the set of shelves, cabinets and functions that are suitable for his apartment.
