Emily can't crawl yet - after all she is only 5 weeks old, but we can't help feel here at dad blog that when she does we need some way of containing her.In steps the Kuutio Futon, a thick cotton mattress in the form of an opened cube with a zipper that runs round its rim.
Kuutio is the Finnish word for a cube. It is also the name of this design project in which the designers Susan Elo and Sirpa Fourastié approach the familiar form in a new way.
When folded in different ways and zipped up, it can be made into a bench, a stool, and an easy chair.
In its cube form, it converts into a storage for the bedding or . When not used, it can be packed away with ease.
Or as we think, for trapping your nippa in a soft box.
