PKMN Architectures designed a series of movable shelving units that optimize for space.
Nowadays, we have more stuff than we have storage. This can be particularly frustrating if you live in a bachelor apartment. If you're embarrassed to invite your friends over because of the clutter, you should definitely look into this compartmentalized storage system. The shelves move to create a "room within a room" scenario -- talk about architectural inception!
The units allow rooms to transform; for instance, a bedroom can easily become a reading alcove, office or kitchen simply by shifting the walls. Each container, wardrobe or cabinet is attached onto a railing system near the ceiling, making the shifting process simple and easy to use.
