This Fold-Out Chair Transforms into a Comfortable Bed

— September 15, 2015 — Art & Design

Upholstered in 100 percent sheep wool material with a veneer-based body, this fold-out chair can either function as a comfortable seat or be folded out for a one person sleeping space. Elastic straps help to create a comfortable base and an inner storage area can also be used for storing blankets or pillows.

Next time you have company over but the couch is full, this fold-out chair hybrid will help make sure everyone has a cozy and comfortable night's rest.
