**Teo** is the perfect stool to have at your office. Why? Because it's also a mattress.

The stool which is designed by Matali Crasset for Domeau & Peres is easily transformed into a [comfortable napping mattress](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/eclipse-capsule).

And it comes complete with a "Do Not Disturb" sign.

Just don't let your boss catch you!
