Designed by Shin Yamashita, a student at the
href="http://www.kit.ac.jp/english/" target="_blank">Kyoto Institute of Technology, project “Land Peel” is a creative, fun and multifunctional furniture unit. At the first glance it looks like a common floor mat. But a closer look will reveal that the product is made up by panels which can be lifted in order to create various furniture objects. Land Peel can turn into a comfortable seating item, a table or a writing desk just by doing a few simple moves. When it is not used, it can simply be packed up and stored in a locker somewhere. We think this would be a really useful thing to have around, especially for students who lead a nomadic lifestyle- this way moving could turn into a very easy process.-via
