According to David Ngo, the designer behind the Jacob's Stool, it is "designed to maximize the user's living space and bring added aesthetics to the room." The stool's legs collapse, and then it can be hung on the wall by its fabric hinges as a piece of art. I think it's an innovative solution for small-space living. What about you?

I need something like this in my bedroom. Not so much for other places in the house.

Knowing me, I'd find someway for it to collapse while sitting on it. Collapsible furniture tends to be a danger zone with someone as clumsy and uncoordinated as me. So, while it is pretty, it's definitely a no-go for me.

I think the idea is genius... it's the execution I don't love so much. That cushion! I'd like it more it if went with the Jacob's Ladder base, rather than fighting with it - perhaps a cushion covering made out if woven side pieces?
