Imagine a dining room that unfolds, pop-up book style, from a depth of 17 centimeters, and you have James Plant's Private Dining custom collapsible dining set. The nondescript white doors open to reveal a table, complete with benches, that can be folded down for extra seating.
Plant's design is featured at this year's 100% Design show in London. The 22-year-old is a recent graduate of Buckinghamshire New University. His Private Dining table is a perfect solution for apartment dwellers and other individuals who suffer from a lack of space in their homes.
