This new foldable cantilever chair transforms from a single piece of art on the wall into a chair! This chair is very functional when space is limited, but also a nice piece of eye candy. This very innovative design was created by designer Dror Benshetrit's whose vision is, "the emotion of art intertwined with simple poetics of form following function."
Implications - As more workers leave the suburbs and move into smaller lofts and condos downtown, consumers are increasingly paying attention to space-saving accent pieces. Furniture that can double as wall art when it's not in use adds to a home's interior design aesthetic and complements rooms that don't have ample storage space.
