BOXED - A Wooden Briefcase Transforms Into Desk And Stools

Tyrone Stoddart, a designer from Scotland, has come out with an ingenious wooden briefcase, called BOXED, that can be transformed into a coffee table, a desk, two stools and a lamp. All these parts then collapse back down to their most basic form, allowing them to be returned to the briefcase.

The concept of BOXED is not only to be an useful furniture but also to educate customer about ash tree dieback disease and the use of materials in all their products. A small pouch of ash seeds is given to the consumer to go out and re-plant to ensure that there is an understanding of the problem of dieback in U.K. but also to replenish the materials that have been used in this project.
