Viable London's Shelflife Series

Hidden Assets. The Shelflife series from Viable London began with Charles Trevelyan's bookshelf and/or room divider that hides a chair and footstool in the structure of the shelves — ready to pull out when needed.

The first shelf/chair/stepstool thing is just brilliant!

Not so much the black entertainment center though... (ugh!) I'd rather see a fireplace there than those extra pieces. What use is the largest of the small pieces even meant for?

I love the first one as a room divider, perfect for a studio or smaller spaces!

Is low-density MDF actually rigid enough to sit on? Book shelves of it need to be pretty short just to keep from bending.
