Anyone who has ever relocated can testify to the great inconvenience and cost of either moving his furniture or discarding it and buying more new. These considerations frame the value of this compact furniture collection as tremendously great.
Stefan Juust has designed the Travelbox as an efficient way of bringing the essential objects together that can instantly furnish a living space in at least a basic way. The durable, rectangular case is constructed with a pull-out futon and mattress, plenty of built-in storage, a stable dining table and even a bicycle. A person can live comfortably for a week with these items, as he works to set himself up in a new city.
