Formable Furniture

The perennial question in a new move is finding the perfect furniture. For me, it doesn’t exist. Call me fussy, but it’s a frustrating experience to buy pieces because I never find what I’m looking for. Let’s put it this way: I’d rather clean out the family garage with its decade’s worth of mysterious boxes and gross cobwebs than go furniture shopping, that’s how much I dread it…so somebody hurry up and take this out of the concept stage already. It’s Formable Furniture, a modern furniture piece by designer Reed Crawford showcased on Yanko Design that allows for a change-up of its shape "” a totally handy thing that’s as flexible as the occasions you’d use it for. That means anything goes, whether it’s a sleek coffee table to a chair and back again. The key is in the interlocking pieces, which form to your desired shape when you tug on the wire cable. Tug away all you want: there are endless possibilities to what this can look like in the end. I’m already seeing this in my digs as a low-to-the-ground chaise converted from a temporary Mod-style shelving unit.
