Smith Storage & Stool by Jonathan Olivares

This multipurpose unit serves as a detachable file cabinet, a stool, a rolling cart and stackable shelves. It's also recyclable once the plastic wheels are removed.

"Smith's features provide seven distinct functions; a container providing space for storage, a cantilevered top allowing the object to be hung from a table, a flat upper surface serving as a side table or temporary seat, handles to facilitate moving, wheels for carting, and a protruding bottom that allows the wheels to hang over the sides when multiple Smiths are stacked. Smith's form is the result of a balanced ecology between these features and functions. This hybrid object is useful at a desk, a bedside, a sofa or a dining table and avoids classification into one specific typology. Ultimately it is the user who will come to define Smith through its use."
