About Square and Round Multifunkcionāls sēdeklis

Square and Round ir multifunkcionāls sēdeklis, kas izgatavots no dižskābarža koka un akrila. Caurspīdīgā akrila virsma atklāj iekšējo koka konstrukciju. Novietota vienā veidā, virsma veido vieglu sēdvietu. Apgriezta otrādi, tā pati virsma kļūst par kafijas galdiņu ar padziļinājumu, kurā var novietot atslēgas un citus sīkus priekšmetus. Detaļas ir savienotas ar tradicionālu dubultā bezdelīgastes ķīļa konstrukciju, tāpēc netiek izmantoti metāla savienotāji. Sēdekli var izjaukt ar rokām, tiklīdz ir atrasts fiksējošais ķīlis. Plakanā iepakojuma risinājums samazina transportēšanas apjomu.
