Verseatile was the 3rd-year submission for the Sitting Society project.
The concept is a multi-functional set of chairs, one of which can be changed into a table/desk. It was designed to be used by students living in student accommodation (or anyone with a small flat) to maximize their space by having a space to study but can also create more seating to accompany their guests.
