If you're like most people currently alive on this planet, your space is limited. Especially if you live in the city, you need to try to make the most effective use of the space you have--which is why multifunctional furniture is nice, particularly when it's good looking. The Lightbox is attractively bold, but still simple, and can do almost anything. It's a lamp, it's an end table, it's an ottoman, it's a stool--you might never need to buy another piece of furniture again.
