Recently, a designer in Hong Kong has invented a special book that can transform (變形) into a piece of furniture. The special book is called Bookniture. It can be unfolded to become a chair or a small table. People can either carry it around for a portable (輕便的) chair or can store it in their homes to use as extra furniture.

The book was designed by Mike Mak. He came up with the idea after never having enough seats for his friends in his home in Hong Kong.

“I love having friends at my place, but I have never had enough seats for everyone—we would always end up with just sitting on the floor. 1 really want a seat that doesn’t take up any floor space when I don’t need it. One day, the empty space on my bookcase drew my attention. Then came the new idea—Bookniture, furniture hidden in a book,” said the 30-year-old designer.

Made from fully-recyclable kraft paper (牛皮紙) , the book measures 33 cm by 18 cm. It expands (擴大) to 14 times bigger once it’s opened, and can support up 10 1,000 kg of weight. It comes in two colors, brown and black, and can be bought for between£55 and £57.

C. it can transform into a chair or a table
