TV Packaging used as a TV stand
This is a pretty neat design. It is a television package that becomes a TV stand. Designed by Tom Ballhatchet, it is molded from expanded polyproylene, and is meant for transporting a TV home after purchase. After you take it home, you can use the cavities for storage and DVD players, etc. Not only is this a very efficient use of the packaging and sustainable, it saves you about $200 or more for a TV stand. It also looks cool and trendy!
How it works?
1. Wheel the TV and packaging into your home.
2. Remove packaging from the TV and take wheels off their first axes.
3. Locate the four plugs of the upper stand into the four sockets of the lower stand. Slide forward until the two parts lock together.
4. Locate the TV bracket and TV into the shaped section on top of the stand. Place the wheels on their new axes on the side of the stand.
