This rubber upholstered, rocking banana is actually a piece of combo furniture. The Rocking Couch is shaped like a clever lounger, but it also doubles as a book shelf.
The concept is a must for design conscious people who live in small pads. Alternatively, the piece would look great in an ultra sleek office.
Implications - Consumers living in tight areas require furniture that saves space. Small apartments in large cities often provide an inconvenience when it comes to storage due to a lack of space. Multi-functional furniture pieces will solve that problem by providing different uses for things that otherwise may have taken up space. This style is thus a must for companies looking to serve both suburban and urban needs.
