Modular, space-saving, space transforming furniture pieces are so much fun! In light of the Transformers movie coming out at the end of the month, I wanted to share with you some easy to do yourself transformers. This kitchen in South Africa has a great mobile counter that swings around on wheels.
How easy would this be to make? This desk uses a similar idea, but rather than a swinging action, opens up by pulling the desk top and side piece out.
This next one is our own creation and we call it the “Transfarmoire.” It is an armoire that transforms into an editing studio for our film editing needs.
We used the second shelf that came with the armoire as the desk top piece, bought some wood at the hardware store for the legs, stained them the same color and attached the legs using swinging hinges. We bought an IKEA keyboard tray and drilled wholes to allow mobility of the tray. It’s great being able to put it all away and help keep the equipment dust free.
I am actually thinking of a prototype of a bike turning into computer with a desk. How cool it be for someone to go on a bike and turn it into computer before a coffeeshop.
What would be great is if the battery of the laptop would be getting charged while you're biking and then run on that energy when you're still.
