Forget indoor bike racks, stands and other traditional ways to integrate your bicycle into the home without it becoming an eyesore, instead take a good look at the PIT IN bike desk. This interesting piece of furniture makes your bike doubly useful by converting it into a seat when not in use.
Conceived by Store Muu Design Studio, the PIT IN bike desk is made entirely out of plywood. Nominated for Design Report Award 2009 in Milano Salone Satellite, it is definitely getting a lot of deserved love from the public and design circle.
