Those of us without plenty of space and money to spare can usually appreciate the value of versatile designs. The Offi Otto is one such object that can perform a pair of different functions that can enhance your patio area.
Lisa Albin of Iglooplay worked with Offi to make an ottoman that would match the existing Mod Lounger. This movable would too be made of rotational-molded plastic material, embodying the same structural strength, durability against the weather and a matching color scheme so that it can be paired with any one of the associated recliners. Should you find more use for a planter instead of a footrest, however, the Offi Otto can be turned over to accommodate soil and lush greenery.
