Millennial consumers are often opting for apartments, condos and rentals in place of attempting to purchase in the escalating housing market, which makes [multifunctional and compact furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bookmarker-table) such as the Dartmouth Sofa Convertible featuring an adaptable table an ideal investment. The moveable is a stylish couch with a [hidden compartment](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/taarof-table) at the back that opens up to reveal a flat-packed table.

The 3-in-1 layout of the couch allows for the moveable to be both a sitting area, a [reclining bed](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aria-fabric-sleeper-sofa) as well as a table without occupying an overt amount of space.

The design of the Dartmouth Sofa Convertible & Table showcases how brands can utilize unused space inside moveables to transform it into a place where extra accessories can be kept.
