Yves Béhar & MIT Designed a Shapeshifting Apartment in a Box

As apartments get smaller, traditional furniture becomes less likely to fit in--literally. As cities trend toward micro apartments in the realm of 300 square feet or under, multifunctional pieces are not just nice, but necessary to create a functional space in such a small footprint. Luckily, the geniuses at MIT Media Lab and Yves Béhar teamed up to create Ori Systems, a freestanding unit that's essentially an entire apartment in a box.
