Multifunctional modular furniture "cajas"

Pre-existences and conditions
- design for myself after moving 23 times
- packing and unpacking as a painful task on each move (never enough 'banana' boxes)
- need of flexibility as every house is different
Concept and solution
- modular system of 'boxes' that can be piled or grouped
- the size of the unit is calculated so one person can carry it even if full
- the box is used as carrying-box and as furniture, so no need for packing and unpacking when moving
- the size is calculated so each box has different functions - seat, book shelves, stool...
- when they are grouped form bigger furniture - sideboard, side table, bed and nightstands
- an extra individual platform with wheels make them easy to move and reorganize any time
