Honey Hunters : Eric Valli Cart - 0 items High Himalaya Share Saving Space: Storage-Filled Sofa has Secret Compartments There is more than one way for furniture to double its functionality – convertible sofa beds are a good start, but more experiments with storage might be a less-glamorous pursuit with even more possibilities. A chair could be tricky, and we take desk doors for granted, but massive and dense couch-sized seats seem ideal candidates for making maximum use of available space. The black-and-white, striped-box style of the SofaSofa might not be for everyone, but both the seating surface and back support elements feature a series of hidden storage areas.
