If you’re like most people, that shirt or pair of jeans you’ve worn only once typically gets tossed onto a chair. The only problem with that is that clothes can pile up pretty quickly, causing your chair to all but disappear. Inventor Simone Giertz has come up with a solution for that dilemma: the Laundry Chair. You guessed it: it serves as a chair and clothing storage at the same time. The Laundry Chair features a movable rail, so instead of forming a pile, clothes go around the chair. The rail is mounted on a smooth ball-bearing Lazy Susan mechanism, so you can rotate it, hide the clothes behind the chair, and still be able to sit in it. The rail can fit at least 10 items of clothing. Call it a clever design or a luxury, but if this chair keeps your room tidy and essentially serves as two pieces of furniture in one, it might just be worth it. Giertz is currently raising funds on Kickstarter, and you can be a backer for just $879. The retail price is planned to be $1,100, with shipping beginning in November.
