This Sectional Sofa Has a Built-in Shelf for Holding Books and Plants

This sectional sofa echoes the common theme in the home furniture realm right now of modularity and customization for those living in smaller spaces, allowing people to alter their furniture to be just right.

The 'Two Be' sectional sofa doubles as a shelving unit with a wooden shelf that sits behind the seats and juts out to the side. It allows for books, drinks or small plants to be kept on the shelf, while providing a side-table like structure as well. It can even act as a ledge to hold paintings if there is no wall nearby.

Finally, the couch itself can be sectioned off to transform into two separate chairs or it can become longer in width for legs to sprawl out while watching a movie.
