Have you ever heard of a Rolly Polly? I don’t know the scientific word for this bug, but it takes its segmented plates and unfurles them in such a way as to form a protective coat that cannot be breached. This is the basic concept for the very smart design by Spanish designer Marc Graells Ballve.

This has to be one of the most useful pieces of furniture I’ve seen in a long while. It’s called the Doc System, and it folds from a sofa into a bunk bed. I’m, of course, being heavily biased because of the recent arrival of my first child. Here’s the deal, my wife and I own a one bedroom apartment in San Francisco. Space is at a premium here, so I’ve been search for just such a piece. Now would I really use a convertible modern piece of furniture like this? It depends upon how lazy you are. I’m lazy, so in the end, this piece would just stay a sofa or a bunk bed ninety-nine percent of the time.

I really hope I don’t hear from this designer about this (because I seem to get a lot of ego searches where they find their product here on my site). This will be one product that I can’t fully recommend because its ugly. In fact, all of Gijs’ designs are ugly, but not in a witty, self-effacing. I think his ugly designs all start with his anti-manifesto:

” Goodbye universal design, because there are as many designs as people.
Goodbye representing design, because new things only originate by inventing.
Goodbye static design, because people change.
Goodbye everyday design, because buying has to be exiting.
Goodbye useful design, because you can buy that at Ikea’s.
Goodbye recognizable design, because the unknown is exiting.
Goodbye timeless design, because a design originates in time.”

God, where do I start. I just can’t do this. Please, take a look at his work and help me with an analysis by writing a comment on the site.
