The Design
About Karamba Krakk
Inspirert av en piratfilm ser denne krakken ut som kapteinens skattekiste, hvor han kan gjemme byttet sitt for mannskapet, forkledd som et møbel. Foruten skuffen er det 2 skjulte rom for å oppbevare skattene dine. Trekropp og skipstau gjør utseendet mer realistisk, som et faktisk møbel fra kapteinens lugar. I et moderne interiørdesign kan dette være en virkelig god aksent i rommet.
