30/10/2020 - After last spring's lockdown, in this new phase of the pandemic - the 'second wave' - we again have to stay home as much as possible and limit social activities, even at school and work.
So the home has again become the setting for our daily activities. No longer dedicated to relaxation and conviviality only at lunch and dinnertime, domestic space has also become our office, classroom or study space. We have been living this new life for several months now, making it necessary to reorganize our habitat so that different activities, functions and furniture arrangement can coexist without interfering with each other.
Those of us who have already experienced distance learning and smart working know how important it is to create a comfortable and functional environment, even at home.
But so often, due to small spaces and inflexible layouts, it is difficult to dedicate a domestic space exclusively to school or smart working.
The question is whether it is possible to create a study or office in the absence of a specifically designed room without resorting to significant renovations.
Clei was the first to explore the complex world of transformable furniture. Since the 1960s, the company has created modular furniture and integrated transformable systems that multiply space, allowing maximum functionality without sacrificing comfort.
The Living & Young System modular program is designed to integrate patented transformable systems and specific functions: sleeping, working, studying, eating, leisure, etc.
Elements can be combined to transform divided and shared spaces or any corner of the home with a simple gesture so that bookcases, storage units, desks and comfortable beds are always available for use.
The Home Office module has a retractable desk that can create a study area in the living room without using the dining table. In one easy movement, the central door becomes a self-supporting top thanks to the folding mechanism.
The module has a micro-perforated sheet metal shelf, cable guides, LED lighting and an upper leaf. It is available in 2 heights: 147.8 cm and 220 cm and can be completed with storage elements.
For the Young line, Clei proposes Kali Board and Altea Book 120 Board, two convertible systems that combine a bed and a desk in a single unit. After a long day of studying, Kali Board transforms readily from desk to bed, leaving the desktop intact by swinging it into a horizontal position under the bed. Patented by Clei, the desk is more than two meters long and can accommodate two comfortable workstations at the same time.
If space is really tight, the Cabrio In system combines an ample desk with a single bed. A simple movement raises the large and comfortable desktop making the bed below available for sleep or other activities.
Clei amplifies, multiplies, composes and conceals space. Furniture becomes dynamic and interactive thanks to multifunctional products that can be configured in different ways for different purposes.
