Origami Style Flat Pack Furniture

There are a variety of products that are now being produced in the flat pack design, one main one being furniture. This example shows how furniture cannot only be functional, but decorative once put away, and really emphasising the space saving concept of our product.

"Whether it's for the space-saving or cool factor, the appeal of flatpack furniture comes from its ability to make functional furniture from easy-to-transport pieces that are usually lightweight and materially efficient. Combining Chinese and Scandinavian design sensibilities, designers Ying Zhang and Ida Thonsgaard have created a flatpack furniture collection that folds like origami and seems just as fun."

These pieces are both decorative, functional and flatpack, making them very easy to transport and put away to save space in the home or office. Not only are these designs functional, they provide fun and decoration to any space. They are all easy to assemble, which is another aspect I believe makes them so accessible and popular with the public.
