The Customizable Q-Couch

Posted on July 16, 2007 at 12:52 pm (PST)

Once again, another country hands America its butt on a plate in terms of fashion and technology. A company in UK manages to brings both aspects together to create the Q-couch. Vertically stackable and not at all different from a game of Tetris, each partition can be joined together to form one chair, or a family-sized couch. About three can be joined to sit an adult comfortably. The Q-couch is comfortable (made of polypropylene material) and sturdy enough for continued use and a single partition weighs about 2.8 pounds each, so it will take little to no effort to transfer it from room to room. Best of all is the color option. Seemingly ever color you can think of is available, so you can mix and match, or pick out your school colors and the like. Size can also be adjusted, in case you want a few pieces to put in your child’s room.

At the moment, price might be the one thing can scare away the American buyers. Each piece is at 65 pounds, or 132 American dollars, which means, more than what most Americans are willing to spend. Still, the concept is a fascinating one, and if you can afford it, I say go for it.
