A sheet of shelves

John Chan | Oct 03, 2007

So you thought Ikea's clever when it comes to flat packing Well, check out the Piegato. This shelf/magnetic board from Matthias Ries, a design firm out of Germany, makes every other shelf space-wasters in comparison.

Out of the box, the Piegato looks like an oddly designed magnetic board. With a few folds of this metal sheet, you can customize it to become a shelf for all your books and junk. And because you decide which parts to fold out, you can have just one to three shelves depending on how much wall storage you need.

Because of how cleverly efficient it is, it should be perfect for students in dormitories. But it costs more than some cheap shelves you can find elsewhere, so poor students may just have to settle for plain and bulky.
