Babies grow faster than you’d imagine rendering a large number of children’s products unusable after a short period of time. German design agency SchupplerSchwarz in its effort to change this situation of limited life-span has developed PerpetuumMobile – modular kids furniture that adapts to changing needs of a child over time.
PerpetuumMobile comprises two oval rings of plywood coated with a top layer of oiled maple veneer and a multi-purpose seating that can be altered in form so the piece of furniture can transform easily and quickly. The oval rings enable the to-and-fro motion, making it possible to use it as a crib, mobile, rocking horse, or even a chair over time with the growing baby.
Starting off as a baby cradle, it can be changed to mobile by placing the seat on the floor and attaching some toys. Thereafter, the PerpetuumMobile can be transformed into a rocking horse or a chair by flipping the seat in another way.
