With people living in smaller spaces, it’s always a good idea to have furniture and decor items that have more than one purpose. Here are 11 examples of just that…
1. The ARiNA bluetooth speaker by MUEMMA is both a speaker and a storage solution for the tiny things in your life, like your phone, keys, and wallet. It also comes in many colors and can be hung on the wall to act as both a speaker and decoration that compliments your decor.
2. The Magazine Stable, designed by Brad Wray Workshop, is a triple whammy: a stool, a table, and a magazine holder all in one.
3. Add some greenery to your workspace with this all in one planter and pen holder, designed by Julia Kononenko.
4. This foot stool, designed by Lisa Albin for iglooplay, can be flipped upside-down to become a planter.
5. Never worry about making the trek from your favorite chair to your bed ever again with this ‘Baby Hippo’ foldable chair/mattress combo, from KARUP.
6. All of the pieces in this Maisonette Collection by Simone Simonelli, have two purposes: a coat stand/mini-wardrobe, a cart/table, and a basket/tray.
