Hus

Hus is a small table that can also serve as a storage space or as a miniature house for children to play and learn the rudiments of arranging space. Many traditional dollhouses do not allow children to exercise their imagination and spatial planning, which is reflected also in adulthood. Hus familiarizes children with the principles of architecture and attentively designed interiors and lets them explore materials used in construction, like wood, concrete and clear panels. It is a piece of furniture which connects different generations by allowing them to spend quality time together.

QWERTY

Sooner or later, we all end up by falling asleep on our computer’s keyboard. Turning the archetypal image of a keyboard into a sofa bed, QWERTY holds you on its soft keys while working in the office or at home, bringing a pinch of irony in our daily life. Anyway QWERTY is much more than a sofa bed. Thanks to micro electric motors controlled by a remote control, every single keycushion is adjustable to give total freedom. In this way, the furniture becomes a unique and comfortable support.
