Clevr: Balkony, the Modular Sitting/Eating/Growing Furniture System

Stuck with a tiny balcony? Looking for a smart way to maximize space? Look no further than the design by Christian Lessing, whose modular furniture system adds clever multi-tasking to a previously useless (or less used) space. It's got modules for seating, tables and flat surfaces that are handy for plants, especially if it's out on a balcony or adjacent to a window; though it's designed for balconies, this design is a great way to maximize space anywhere.

We could see this doing good work in a breakfast nook or similarly small space; sit for a quick meal and then turn it over to your plants while you're gone all day. Clevr. ::Christian Lessing via ::Josh Spear

Innovation and creativity are clearly the by-products of the environment you place yourself in each day. When your assets are intellectual property it is even more important that you invest in a work environment that generates as much innovation and creativity as possible. Once we redirected our business from selling office furniture to selling innovative work space our business has been on a very positive trajectory.
