This clever foldaway table from Ivy Design reminded me of a similar idea in James Hennesey and Victor Papanek’s classic 70s DIY furniture book Nomadic Furniture. Would be an easy remake. [via DVICE]

Where do you hide the chairs?
Folding chairs, such as the wood and canvas “Director’s” chair, are stashed in the closet, next to the stepladder, the mop and bucket, et al.
Put the chairs on the wall too

Practical is boring.
More importantly, where do I put my abc gum when I’m done with it?
What a great idea — thanks for sharing!
Where are the instructions for this?? I don’t see a link for the DIY part of it…
Haha… That’s a nice idea! In this generation, digital cameras and photo-storing sites are preferred by most people. But picture frames are still useful because these can also add glam to your living room or bed room.

No reason why the ‘picture frame’ can’t become a flat-screen display …

Problem: the photo and the sketch don’t match. The table legs are different. In the photo the legs become part of the frame, but the plans show a wide center leg. Also, I would like my table to swing up, not down. How can I make this adjustment? (Ok. so I’m not clever that way.)
agreed — I would love the DIY instructions for making the table in the photo, as opposed to the one in the sketch. I understand the concepts, but would like more information on the hardware components.
i agree with the need for some more info, most specifically the types of hardware used.
Did anyone ever get the plans or hardware used????
