The Product

The design attempts to utilize negative spaces within the house to make small storage containers for small objects. Boxes are thus designed in different sizes to adapt to the needs or habits of the user. The boxes can be stuck in any corner or hidden space within the house. These can open two ways and can be arranged in a group or individually.
