This multifunctional unit plays many roles. Firstly, as a dividing wall between the living area and study / optional bedroom. Secondly, as a base or foundation for the furniture on either side, i.e. the bespoke sofas use the wall as a backrest. The desk on the other side is actually part of the wall, recessed flush into the surface of the unit and hinged to form a horizontal table, revealing power sockets etc. for use with laptops. Thirdly, the whole wall opens to reveal storage shelving for an audio-visual system and also a pull down bed; the full height doors closing the area off completely for privacy when required.
