The Micomoler Banquete is a Super-Plushy Seat and a Tea Table for Four

— January 11, 2014 — Art & Design
There are two primary ways in which to use the Micomoler Banquete, one accommodating just one person, and another, up to four. The piece of furniture comprises a lovely pale wooden bench with a shallow drawer for storage; it stands low to the ground on four little legs.

In its most compact form, this adorable ottoman has flat pillows stacked up on top of it and a pair of red belt-like straps to hold them in place. In this arrangement, one can use the Micomoler Banquete like a plushy stool. Alternatively, the bolsters can be removed and placed around the now-bare surface. The object is thus transformed into a coffee table, easily accessed by those sitting on the cushions on the floor.

Trend Themes

  1. Multi-functional Furniture — The Micomoler Banquete's ability to transform from a seat to a table highlights the trend towards furniture that serves multiple purposes.
