A mirror you can store things behind. It's called a medicine cabinet. It's not new. It just has rollers instead of hinges.
And for 4K, an average to above average handy man could probably duplicate it either in part or in full or improve upon it.

1:53 That's fun and all, but my problem with these huge "folding furniture" things is that even when fold them in to 'safe space', you still have to keep everything around it empty for when you DO fold it out, literally saving no space at all.
unless you have another folding furniture that uses the space when you dont need the bed for example :P
The folding beds are actually nice if you live in a small flat and need that space during the day. Or if you have a kid in a small room and want him to have more space to play around. Sure, you'll need to open up the space when going to bed, but the rest of the time you have all that space. Again, this is of course assuming you need that space. If you don't, then yes, there's really no point having one of those.
Like the artist thing. You need the space left and right to unfold it. So no space safed.
@@skaruts That might actually provide a pretty damn good excuse to get your kids to clean their bedroom... "You can't go to bed until you clean your room, because you need the space to pull your bed out. GOOD LUCK!"
You are completely right!
Spiraling staircases have literally existed since the dark ages.
Da Vinci designed them
@@kshitijghormade584 There is a marble spiral staircase that is still standing, built in aprox. 133A.D. This isn't the first spiral staircase, as spiral staircases are believed to be have been in use over 3000 years ago. Medieval castles had spiral staircases, their stair cases were designed & built to aide the fighters during battle(staircases were built in a clockwise direction so enemies couldn't swing their swords properly as most were right-handed, &when they were able to lift their arms to strike after rounding a curve,they fully exposed themselves&ended up victims) There is speculation that Da Vinci either designed or influenced the design of a staircase in the Chateau of Chambord, only because he was living in the vicinity.

Thank you I'm like where do I put the books rolls eyes. They put everything on them but a book ugh😕

zSeth do you know how much a house cost
Nvm cost of living always on rise, property prices/higher rents and the associated repairs/maintenance of bigger dwellings, etc.
Getting a bigger space isnt always the option if trying to save or invest for later.
Long term these are cheaper even more so if you can build them vs getting a bigger domicile.
Meaning they might want a smaller space for cheaper everything else.
Have u heard of these countries:
Hong Kong
Singapore
And other cramped places?
@@telephonenumber8995 i reign from the Hong Kong Country
There's always this kind of comment in this kind of videos.
1. A bigger house is not always a option
2. As someone mentioned above, in the long run a compact furniture is cheaper than rent a huge house
0:56 "you don't have to remove any items..."
Forgets plate in between the gaps.
I'd purchase it if I couldnt find an inset medicine cabinet for orders of magnitude less...priced out to crazy.
I know, this thing drives me nuts. The worst of both worlds - intermittent shelves that can't be used for any kind of storage and a table that doesn't have a continuous flat surface. If you need a folding table, get a damn folding table and store it against a wall when it's not in use.
@@rcb3921 on no - you simply CANT have people knowing you use a fold up table, and store it against a wall when not in use to save space - what on earth will people think of you??? i can go to bunnings, a camping store or heck, even kmart, and get a fold up table for under $50 (australian $). ..

I really like seeing the positive in these innovative creations because they really are neat, but all I keep seeing is dollar signs and the possibility of malfunctioning. It's like runway fashion.. like it's a great concept, but would the average consumer really be able to afford it? Great ideas, though!

Big dollar signs indeed! The only one that I would spend on would be the Dreambox / Workbox item. Because I have a ridiculous amount of painting supplies and craft stuff to store and don't want it visible all the time -- or taking up space. It's a really good idea and, to me, would be worth the investment.
5:34 Safety net, more like constant fear of heights net.
8:10 Stop calling it a bookshelf, books will just fall right through. Maybe it's a shelf, but NOT a bookshelf.
Ikr 🤣
How small are books you read?
How about storing them horizontally? It also makes it easier to read the book titles...
@@NynNahh
Hmm 🤔
I would say it takes up too much space and some books are thicker or longer than others which makes it annoying to sort.
Since the books will be yours it should be easy to tell where every book is.
It’s just more convenient when you have them vertically.
@@SonoftheFortunate I don't even have a proper bookshelf, but I store them horizontally anyways. I store from bigger to smaller, and divide the piles by theme. I would organize by sizes if they were vertically, because I hate the different height sizes going up and down..

Spend the money and just get space.
12:40 that staircase is an accident waiting to happen. It would limit a lot of people using it and would be unsuitable for people getting on in age.
not a staircase. it doesnt fulfil any regulations.
"Good luck with the new upstair furnitures as well"
And since they're triangular, they are literally double the necessary tread at the deepest point. They don't save space. Not only is it bad design, it doesn't even deliver the o.n.e. promise it made 💀
It also doesn't save space either, it legit has the same slope as regular stairs that aren't diagonal
I thought it was a really clever and practical design that would be excellent for people with one leg that's 8" shorter than the other. Unfortunately they'd need two staircase - one for going up and one for going down. And a colossal insurance policy if they ever have guests over. Other than that, it's genius.
I feel like I just watched a long commercial of everything my room needs.
Yup

And like with most commercials, after a second thought: "Nah". I come to thinking that I don't need more storage, I need to get rid of more shit.

I'd would like to see the designer of those stairs, coming down the stairs with a laundry basket held in front. Another Darwin award winner for certain.
it also fails building regulations in the uk, so could never be installed.
But hey, you could always brag about them to your friends, while rubbing your bruises. If you survived.
Here's an idea, why don't companies actually invent furniture like this for the poor, instead of always having the rich in mind. Thrust me, creating for the poor actually increases your chances of your furniture actually being bought.
Very true because it expands the market
Yeah but like... but like... would you rather make products for people who can give you money, or people who can't? It's a neat idea, if you've never run a business before. But the difference between a business and a charity is that a business's goal is to make a profit.
-WoF- DarkNewton yes indeed but I think she means the money will come if you have helping people on a budget in mind
Netty Holyfield I agree
@@WoFDarkNewton I 100% agree, however I think Kat was commenting on a lower price will generate more sales. Even if it's not for the poor, the price tags of $8000+ for some of these items is pretty ridiculous (especially the mirror one), and could definitely be made for closer to $500 - $1000, depending on what it is.

Yep for all those that have the money to afford these items they don't have any need for them.
That double bunk sofa is genius, but there's no way you're getting me to sleep on the bottom with those skinny hinges. 😂
Those last (admittedly cool-looking) stairs look like a death sentence waiting to be executed...😬
They are a death sentence to the Amazon rainforest since they're made of mahogany.
Also, how do they get approved by the Building inspector? No handrails and looks like several code violations on top of that...
I don't have a problem with the idea, but it seems to me like those steps in the picture still take the same space that two normal steps would.
Though I still agree with your observation. lol
@@gerry5712 the people that can afford the kinds of things in this video are not the kind of people that have to worry about building inspectors.
They are. Stairs are one of the few inventions that was done right the first time. Any changes in even mundane things like the step size can cause you to miss a step or trip.
11:33 And that is a good example of why you don't call a architect to do a engineering job.
Corners are where the pillars that support the second floor/hoof are hidden.
Use cantilevered steels, also in a stud non load bearing wall, no problem at all. I'm an engineer 👍
@@mickk8519 Me 2...
Its over complicating something simple and adding unnecessary costs. It also limits what you can construct above that point unless you add more structural beams (more unnecessary costs).
Its doable? Yes. Should you do it? No.
True, that door is just senseless in a normal house. speaking of normal house, i have no idea what you are talking about. i live in a proper house with a concrete cellar and stone walls...
Weeeeeellllll I like the idea of bringing something so standard back into the light a bit. I mean yes, it's probably standard for the reasons you stated, but I think maybe it could answer the weird one-off questions. Not an engineer, but if it can be done, maybe there is a niche market for it to be applicable.
@@vitor900000 It may make things complicate, but it also opens up the possibility for better room design.
Yes! I’ve been looking for a bookshelf I can’t store books on!
It's a snob bookshelf. If you read books that are too thin, they drop through the cracks and you're automatically judged.
The religious bookshelf, the cracks are sized so that it can only hold bibles
"Space Corner" perfectly illustrates my problem with these types of designs. Geometrically, you get the EXACT SAME amount of drawer space as you would with two conventional drawers in the same position. Also, you get those acute-angle corners at the front of the drawer that are basically wasted space if you want to store large items. That leaves two possibilities - that this extremely obvious flaw was missed in every stage of its design, OR the designers were aware of it and are just trying to sell quirky but useless shlt for high prices. A basic lazy susan cabinet is FAR more effective.

Too relatable
If the sink is so advanced why doesn't it have a MOTION DETECTOR, as the local paper towel dispenser at the gas station has?
"Pressing a button" is so '80s
Brushing teeth in that sink n also taking boogers out... And still using it as a table. Yucky!! 😀
And a table to do what in the bathroom. Study or breakfast? So.. I suppose it just gives a clean look. Can't be used as a table. 🙂
What ya say?
@@myartside657 To change a baby´s diaper, I guess...
That giant hidden space in the sink will eventually fill up with sludgey mold and bacteria. So whenever that sink is used, it will send a big puff of germ laden air into the room. It's basically an unsanitary gimmick sink. No wonder why it is black in order to hide the germs and slime. The bar that slides across basically has germs build up on it. So each time it comes out to slide across the sink surface, it leaves a film of mold and bacteria on the surface. This type of sink is good only when new before it becomes gunked up with mold and bacteria.
@@animejanai4657 I am sure, just like any sink, you would clean it every once in awhile. You can push the button to clean that space down.
Some of us 80's guys love pressing buttons. Especially 2 at the same time to get some unplanned effect.

"mum wheres my laptop?"
"idk hunny check under the bed, thats where you left it last time"
$4,000 for a simple wooden box with round mirrors in it. People have some pretty big egos these days 🤦♂️
I think I've seen something like that before.
Yep, I have. It's called my bathroom medicine cabinet. Shelves with mirrored doors that slide out of the way.
It's less useful than a medicine cabinet and its design with a bunch of holes drilled for wooden pegs to hang keys upon is rather absurd since this shallow mirrored cabinet should be located where people need to use the mirror. Adding keys to the mix further reduces the places where this white elephant of a $4000 wooden and space inefficient medicine cabinet can go. It's no good in bathrooms because those already have their own wall-mounted mirrors. Its maker is really arrogant to market such a thing at $4000 because such a simple product at such a high price is also tantamount to a sneer at normal people. I'm rather disappointed at "Be Amazed" for hosting such a product advertising video.
At IKEA it would cost 40-50 bucks. (it is btw actually a product/solution IKEA would actually be interested in selling)
No joke. And it’s ugly too.
Completely agree. It's like a glorified medicine cabinet, definitely not worth $4k

My thoughts exactly. I don't understand how they can even still call it a "bookshelf" 🤷🏼♀️
Hard to choose a favourite one. As a crafter, I was drooling at the scrapbox, but I also loved the doolight, the living cube, and the shape shifting bookshelf. The Lumio is rather special too. Some awesome inspiration here.
same
Just keep in mind that realistic usefulness is key, and saving space requires that things actually do realistically save space. The scrapbox is nice in concept, but doesn't save any space at all. You will want to have the space around it always clear and unused, or else you can't open it. But then, you might as well just have two additional cabinets there, which would have more storage space than the scrapbox's doors. And if you are active every day on your hobby, then you're probably not gonna close that thing ever, so. Those doors also extend too far from the sitting position to be practical. A corner piece might be a better idea. It's a nice concept, but could use some improvements.
That shapeshifting bookshelf is completely pointless. It's a nightmare to put things on it because of all the gaps. Imagine placing a flower jar wrong on the gaps and not notice it in time. Besides, it's called "bookshelf" but... it can't actually hold books. It has no sides, and it's full of gaps. And then you can tediously turn it from a """bookshelf""" into a... not-bookshelf that still takes wall space.
The living cube... I mean if you have the money to afford it and the space to fit it in your house, then you already live in a spacious house. And good luck dragging that thing out to clean up behind it.
Don't even get me started on many of the others...
Murphy beds have been around for years as have the convertible furniture in Europe/Asia but glad to see it coming to the US. The 'living cube' sort of thing is a must in small HK flats. Love that design continues to evolve.

Or just leave your doors open?
I put one of those on my closet door and put the litter box in there. It's out of the way and people don't see it when they visit.
Everyone thinks i broke it like that though.
I think the key idea was an escape for kitty from doggo. I thought: just cut it, and trim it out. You could always make a hinged flap with a slide latch to lock it in place to close it off.
Or a cat flap
The advantage of flaps is that they let pets in and out, while not letting anything else in and out. Drafts, smells, noises (maybe), etc. I'm not sure the Kitty Corner improves things much over just leaving doors open. But it costs 40 bucks more.
Kitty Korner aka Draft Door. 🤨
2:22 Wait... isn't that the double decker couch from the lego movie

I love the look & design of the stairs at the end that are triangles. Especially if they can have a lower rise as I'm 5'2" & getting older so I find that a lower rise & deeper depth/tread(?) are much more comfortable. I had my outdoor concrete entry steps lower rise & deeper tread.

Yep, had these in caravans 60 years ago, probably before that "designer" was born. Just another stolen idea that's pushed as new and overpriced.
My cousins have those and it’s really nothing different honestly
I just dont really trust Murphy beds, only way I might trust it is if it took a good amount of force to bring to the wall position, like enough force that you dont need pistons to assist putting it up
The stairs in that thumbnail look like a broken neck waiting to happen
Not going to lie... I could binge videos like this ALL DAY (and probably never actually get around to using any of the ideas) 😂🌿
Those treads are an accident waiting to happen. As a home inspector, I’d call them out as hazardous and recommend replacement.
The swing table is actually idiotic. Unless you plan on constantly rearranging whatever you store on it in order to use it for eating, you are going to leave it in one configuration or the other. And while the specific layout of items on it in the video fit nicely when you swap it, I'd wager that most people wouldn't be able to do that.
I would'nt say idiotic but definitely less useful as they show you. But turning a dining table into a shelf, even with the rearranging can be pretty handy depending on your living space. If you don't have much room having a shelf that can turn into a table can be great if you have guests over.
Most people wouldn't be able to replicate the setup with a few bowls and a centerpiece?
I agree. Same with the ScrapBox. It's fine and obviously saves space when its closed. But its a different story when you open it.
I don't know about constantly rearranging to be honest, push the sewing machine inwards as well as the pins, clipper scissors, and put the fabrics aside and vola (at least out of experience). But that my issue with it looks like the space is small and you can't put it in a small room since it folds out. Secondly, that's nice and all but there is no space for cutting the material or making patterns sooo probably other crafts?
Idc i want it😏

There are two problems with all of these fancy space-saving furnitures. First: They are priced at a level that the only people who can afford them are people who can also afford a bigger flat/house. Second: Furniture designed to be rearranged during the day according to current needs do not work. There are even studies about it that show that people pretty much always end up leaving the furniture in the same, suboptimal configuration. So for example, not folding the bed to have a desk, but working in bed instead, etc. These things may look practical (at least some of them) but you just have to consider that using them correctly would require you to rearrange your home several times each day.
Exactly. And look at the scrapbox: two additional cabinets would have much more storage than those doors have, and they would only take the space that you have to always keep clear in order to open that thing. But then it's also like you're saying: if you're active in your hobby every day, then you'd probably leave that thing open all the time.
All of these things are for critically small homes, but the prices are for people who can buy a damn mansion!

Corner storage under cabinets. Lazy Susan's have been around for who knows how long.
Nearly every one of these is just a complicated way to separate people from their money.
Exactly what I was thinking. I've never had it, but I've seen it in movies since forever.
EDIT: actually, now that I think about it, my kitchen's storage-room-thing fills the whole space under my stairs. lol
For real. Every townhouse/apartment with two stories or more has at least a closet under the stairs.
Did you know, that with these "super smart space corner" drawers, the exact amount of space you win in the corner, you loose on the straigt sides? Besides, you have odd shaped drawers in which it's more difficult to store regular shaped objects. "aesthetic" is not always synonymous for "smart"
I thought the exact same thing. How did that actually get produced when the idea is quite so easily refuted?
I loved those as I have a corner cabinet that is just a big void of useless space. I virtually have to climb into it to get things from the back. I want those draws please.
Yup, it takes two drawers in exchange for one that is only slightly bigger than one of the originals. And there's still about the same wasted space around it.
Yes, the point isn't that this is completely useless, it's just that: I've already seen BETTER solutions in corners. Solutions that yield more space than this idea. I was very underwhelmed when I saw that. How did this idea get to be in a video when there's already better ideas out there that deserve this spot more. hmm.
@@Dixxi91 Then again, a glorified hole cut into your door and a bookshelf that can't hold books made it into the video.
I've seen a few of these design ideas already being utilized in tiny homes, ie, the under stairs storage, the space saving stairs, the net in the loft space etc.
I wish regular people could buy this stuff, people'd love it. These ideas are simply brilliant!
9:41 Good thing Harry Potter had to live in the cupboard under the stairs and not the storage cube under the stairs.
How does this comment not have more likes
12:06 unless other cabinet also move diagonally, you still waste 2 triangular space that combined equal to a normal corner i think.
Not sure if I've missed your message here, but you could just open the other drawers when the corner ones are closed.
@@AtomixKingg you just need to think about the space between 2 cabinet at the corner in normal design. And then compare it with the combination of space between the corner cabinet and 2 next to it in the new design.
As someone who sells cabinets I can say it is 100% a waste of space. Even more so than a traditional lazy susan. It also costs more as well.
@@RavenwoodJones If you could get into the otherwise-wasted triangles from the adjacent cabinets, it would be OK. But it isn't built that way.
@@hunghung9537 Ah okay, I get you now. I thought you were trying to say that they couldn't open. My bad.
Ironically, someone is eventually going to fall from that "safety" net when it malfunctions or a screw goes loose and land on whatever's underneath. You should probably add a second safety net to cover that scenario. You could combine the second one with fiber optic lighting so that it also functions as a chandelier.
The last picture of the overlapping stares actually have exciting for awhile, back in Europe it was believed witches couldn’t climb those kinds of stair so some houses were built with them, the one shown in the video is just a new more modern design
thank you so much for showing the actual thumbnail things, i hate those channels that show things in the thumbnail and never actually show them in the videos
12:25 I'd hate to be the mover trying to get furniture up and down those "inspirational" stairs!
Right, small stuff only. Pillows but no mattress. Maybe grab SEVERAL sleeping bags and stack them on top of each other. Otherwise you actually have to haul furniture up in parts and pieces and then construct it up there. Bed rails for a King Size? Nope, not up the spiral. Or, maybe use a crane and bring things in through the window...
Me too!
Now imagine beeing an ambulance nurse who has to get a stretcher up there to get someone down...
@@SonsOfLorgar OOF!
James Curfman
The Crane would be too big wouldn’t it?
2:41 imagine loosing a key on that sofa
That "living cube" i had 1 as a kid it was called a cabin bed
Me: saws of a triangle at the end of the door
Kittycorner creators: you werent supposed to do that
Yes but you'd want to close the entire door most of the times too.
Yeah, instead of opening & closing the corner of your door to let the cat through, you could just open the whole door to let the cat through - they usually let you know when they need a door-opener.
just leave the doors a bit open....
if i don't leave my door open, one of my cats always scratches at it. >:[
@@lenkacfk7155 I've not owned a cat in ages but when I did, I had two and they meowed VERY loudly at my door specifically (because one cat was given to me for my birthday and when the second one came along a few weeks later, my damn animal loving self just naturally fell into taking both in my room the most. So, my room became the room they enjoyed going to the most). I can't just ignore them because they'd wake the whole house but I hate sleeping with my door open. In fact, even the kitty corner thing shown here would be annoying to me, but better than leaving my door open.
I usually ended up putting my foot down and making them stay in my room for the night. They were free to wander for a few minutes when I went to the bathroom (but never did they...those creepy cats would *always* be waiting for me in the dark for when I came out. It's weird to come out the bathroom to an audience, lol!), but then I'd scoop them up and take them back in the room.
The living cube is almost as big as a standard room
And you need an even bigger room to put it in...
And then the price is costly expensive.
Pardon me but I've never seen a room the size of the living cube, even in Taiwan where houses and apartments are expensive, the living cube would actually fit(prolly can't fit thru the door tho) and save quite a lot of space
And 3m high....
Exactly like how would someone fit that thing in their apartment??
thank you for sharing these design solutions to optimize space and multi purpose furniture
Everything I never knew I needed! AND now have to go out and BUY! I Love Good Stuff!
This looks great for a college student with a small apartment or room. Too bad no college student could ever afford these.
cubatat:
yo dawg, we heard you like homes, so we put a home in yo home!
Oooh! Two homes in one! Thanks, Cubatat! 😀
An inside out home! 😄
The craft cabinet, TV and the shelves that become a table. Awesome film!
That 'arts & crafts' unit!! Planning to create some little additions to my book shelf! :)
0:28 OK, I want to provide a counter-argument against the "Swing" dining-table/shelving unit. Right the dining table goes unused for 21 hours and what-not. *However* how many times are you going to convert a shelving-unit to dining-table *just* by rotating the thing? It's a *shelf* right? OK, now you want to *eat* -- so what do you with all the *stuff on the shelf?* You have to *put it somewhere* right? *And that takes time **_and_** extra space.*
Then after you're finished eating and put the dishes away, now you convert it back to a shelf, and put all your junk back on it. *And that also takes time.*
I hear somebody say, "wait a sec, Unca Boat ... the dishes are just stored on the shelf!" *No.* Dishes are stacked together until they take less space than even a single shelf. Unless you're *showing off your dishes* there is going to be absolutely no practical use for this. And what kind of crazy fashionista bothers showing off the dishes they use for eating?
I predict somebody will buy this thing coz it's cute, and really, it's very cute, but they aren't going to put to serious use for longer than a couple of weeks, a month at most. Who's got the time (and unused extra space) to be moving their shelf contents all around the house just because they want to sit down to a meal?
Wonderful fodder for a video, horrible idea in real life.
It's definitely for niche market place. I personally would use it because I hardly eat with people but need a table for planning and designing when I'm working on artwork for a few hours and use reference books. At the end I place my documents away and books in the shelf mode. I already utilize a transforming table but it doesn't become a shelf it becomes just a smaller coffee table but same premise I leave my reference books on there with my documents. The table I have is a simpler "Castro" table. I think the swing would work better for me and due to covid I guess I could host in apt dinner dates since hardly any restaurants are open.
Can you imagine having people around and while you're all sitting at the table someone knocks the mechanism that changes it back to a shelf.
Unless you only make sure you set your table so that things you place on it are wholly within each section, that would be a recipe for disaster.
@@SimonSideburns this is exactly what i predict will happen! people knock things over all the time (glasses get knocked over while dining), so i'm pretty sure someone will knock the mechanism and disturb your meal. same goes for those space saver beds, people have died from accidentally knocking the mechanism, while lying on the bed. yikes. and don't even let me get started on the unsafe stairs
@@twinkle3474 The table problem could easily be fixed by having a mechanism where you need to use both hands. It is unlikely you'll get two mechanism accidentally knocked at the same time.
it could kind of work as a work table, though. keep the stuff you use for working in the shelf, open the table when you need to use it, make it work kind of like the workbox for crafters. that can work for art stuff and electronic stuff i guess.
11:33 I mean corners are usually load bearing so.... seems maybe not such a great idea?
It would require substantial reinforcement around the opening. A strong header, and structural support on either side would make it doable. It wouldn't be practical, but I think we can all agree that by the prices, practicality went out the window a long time ago.
@@chadvarnell1889 just be rich idiot 😂
@@chadvarnell1889 Yeah man, just be rich. How hard can it be?
Not so much a rule for many interior corners but good point
Some really cool ideas, but it seems to me that most of these are space saving solutions for people who can't buy a larger home. Thing is, these are SO EXPENSIVE. Plus, people who rent might really benefit form some of this, except that the task of moving and setting up this stuff would be HUGE! For that segment of society that has is table, has limited space but unlimited money these ideas are awesome! Heads up, rich, young, urban dwellers in rent controlled apartments! Although I gotta have one of those book lights. For my lifestyle, that would be incredibly useful as well as being totally cool.
For me 9:30 the smart storage stairs for my van build, for my bestie 2:00 the workbox 3.0... lots of great ideas here though! Kudos to the creatives!! Now just to make them affordable for everyman...
That shape-shifting sink would look well weird when you've had a few beers too many :-D
They should use it on futuristic film sets!
Would have been great in Star Trek, TNG
you also can´t put anything on it. I mean, you could, but it would probably fall into the sink the next time you want to wash your hands. Pretty inconvenient if you ask me
great ideas are lost when overpriced but can't wait for the knockoffs.
"Jeremy! Close your door! I can hear your guitar all throughout the house!"
"Alright ma!" *closes door*
cat hole: exists
guitar sound: intensifies
those steps on the thumbnail must go to heaven! gorgeous.
Looks like Emmet's double-decker couch wasn't so useless after all!
Except couches that turn into two beds already exist.
Haha that's what I thought!
Most of these are only convenient in smaller homes, but if you have a smaller home that means you probably cant afford any of these
So uplifting, to know that there's such Brilliant people out there!
All designs were Amazing. Would love to have most ! Do not know which is my favorite. Loved them all ! Amazing Designs
6:22 $4000 you're crazy, I'll make that myself only for $💯
IKR? Absolute rip off
Like the 200 Lumo thing, i'd make myself one for 30$
These are super overpriced
I was already thinking the same thing, only I'd make it for 50 bucks, it retails normally at 4k, I can sell this baby for 500 and make a ton of money.
No if people would buy it for $4000 I would try to get at least $500
4000 USD for a mirror? lol
I asked hubby, once a joiner, how much it'd cost to make me one. He reckoned the equivalent of 187 U.S. dollars for materials plus a full day's labour. The custom glass would need to be ordered a week or more in advance from a glazier. He reckoned the mark-up was steep even for the trade.
You should reflect on your decision.
But you can store things behind the mirror!

_It’s a Medicine Cabinet.._
@@prva9347 or, you just get a cheap standard mirror pane from a thrift shop and use a diamond tipped glass cutting tool and a suction cup ended set of calipers to cut it to shape yourself.
8:40 Bedside table with fridge motor running at 2 am, good luck on that one
Exactly! LOL!
I like the space corner. The corner I have now has a hinged door - it'd be easy to reengineer for pullouts. The design needs those higher back and side panels to keep items from falling off, something some pullouts don't have. Also, can I have bathroom sink my cats can play in?
I don’t get the “cubitat” If it can fit in an existing home, then do you buy it and live outside? Lol
I would just put in a warehouse And have more space for my stuff :)
Maybe a tiny house?
Brandon Cao omg....yea
You are to buy it when building the house, probably.
@Brandon Cao OH MY GOD WTF
"And for those who really like to blow money, here is a $12,000 cube that takes the place of a $25 milk crate.
Correction: free milk crate.
Wow all were great ideas installed on furniture with purpose 👍
the book light and the swing table...nicely done! Thanks, God bless.
