Entry Description

B to B means Bathroom changes into Bedroom
How can we do when there are no rooms available for the guests who want to stay overnight? This design can solve this problem.

This design aims to change the bathroom into a temporary room. It seems like the usual bathroom which contains the toilet, bathtub, toilet and wash basin.
However, there is something special that a group of furniture is hidden in the wall next to the bathtub. When we pull it down from the wall, the single bed is appeared and the wardrobe is at the upper level of the bed.
The roll-up door can be closed avoiding the collision with the shower
Two sets of pull-trip cabinet body are specially designed to hide the commode and washbasin, which can be the cabinet. The movable seat is put under the washbasin. For this combination, it can be the work place for the users.

In addition, other bathroom facilities such as shower curtain and tap are designed into a hidden way, so that the users may not notice and discover this is the bathroom after changing into bed room.

All the ingredients, such as glass and corain are waterproof, and durable.
