Multifunctional Furniture

The Sottomon Stool and Side-Table is Perfect for Small Spaces

I own a pretty small space (my bedroom—yes, I still live at home) so my eye is naturally drawn to multifunctional pieces such as the Sottomon Stool and Side-Table. Not that I’m constantly refurnishing my bedroom--that would be pretty ludicrous.

Created by Courtney Clarke, a student at the Cranbrook Academy of Art, the Sottomon Stool and Side-Table features a wooden top when acting as a table, but when flipped over it becomes a comfy, plush seat. Check out the gallery to see how it works.
