Combining a bathtub, an armchair and a bookshelf, Swedish designer Malin Lundmark created this impressive Library Bath which screams relaxation.
Malin says her designs tell a story and are “placed at the very limit of scenography.”
I’m sure this merging of bubbles and bestsellers has widespread appeal; however, the piece de resistance for me would have been the inclusion of a built-in beverage cooler for bubbles of a different kind.
Implications - As the pace at which society moves speeds up, one way a company can capitalize on this is by creating products that combine several different elements in one item. By providing consumers with several commodities in one, the company shows a commitment to innovation and product value.
