Trend Hunter has featured numerous space saving designs, but this hide away balcony furniture set takes away the cake! The design not only saves space, it is completely hidden with zero space invasion while not in use, hence the name, **Spaceless**.

The magic design by Sandy Lam is hidden in the floor of the patio. Whenever you need to use it you can easily pull up the chairs and table. For security, the handles used in [Spaceless](http://www.sandylamdesign.com/spaceless/index2.html)also act as a locking mechanism to stop the furniture from collapsing.

The system comes packaged with flexible parts so it can be customized to fit any balcony size or shape with a hand saw. Also, no hardware is needed for assembly since the modular system is simply joined with different stilts.
