25+ Space Saving & Transforming Designs + Dining & Pool Fusion Table (SUPER GALLERY) Edit

The Fusion Table solves this problem by offering a fun pool table hidden inside a stylish dining table. The transformation is easily done within seconds by sliding the top of the table on or off. So simple, so cleanly and well designed.
