My Transforming Desk-Bar Lets Me Work Hard And Play Hard

ADVERTISEMENT

I’ve always wanted to have my own bar, but living in a small apartment, the only way to fit one was to combine it with another piece of furniture. I designed and made this Transforming Bar Desk to save space in style.

I’m Jonathan Odom, a designer from the Instructables Design Studio in San Francisco. I designed this piece in Fusion 360 (a free 3D modeling program) and cut the pieces on a Shopbot CNC router. This piece can also be built by printing out paper templates I’ve provided and cutting the plywood sheets with a jigsaw.

I’ve always wanted to have my own bar, but living in a small apartment I did not have enough space for it

So I decided to build a desk that transforms into a bar

Now I can go from work to play instantly

A full bar hides at the back of the desk

I also added a drawer for my synthesizer so I could play in between work

Cheers!

I love smart multi-functional furniture. This is also very appealing. Beautiful lines! Bravo!

The truly genius aspect is that you don't have to empty or tidy your desk before turning it into a bar. :-D It could use a touch of glam, though, imo. ;-)
