28-07-2009 Books and Beds
As living spaces get smaller people are looking for a saving space alternative, in order to make life a little less cramped. Karen Babel has come up with the perfect solution – The Book Case Bed. This innovative design consists of a mattress that can stand upright and surround five storage shelves on the wall, which hold the books. When it’s time for sleep, the mattress sections are taken down and slotted together on the floor to make a single or double bed. For her creation, Karen Babel won the prestigious New Designers KBSA Award, and it’s easy to see why.
