Poppie is an entertainment center that also doubles as a guest room for unexpected visitors.
Perfect for city dwellers, Poppie offers a sleek and stylish entertainment unit and, when needed, folds out to reveal a single-sized bed.
Poppie is designed for a flat-screen mount and the bed is situated beside a media storage shelf. There is also an optional folding headboard available.
Implications - As consumers are increasingly moving into cities to live closer to where they work, they're looking for ways to decorate smaller spaces like condos and apartments with panache. Companies can take advantage of this opportunity by creating multifunctional furniture that packs stylish sensibilities into a small footprint.
