What a brilliant space-saving idea: take the tall, ungainly and hard-to-store form of a typical ironing table and give its top a secondary purpose rather than forcing it to displace storage space in a closet – there is nothing to mount and no need to hide this otherwise big inconvenience when not using it.

The flip-side of this very basic and conventional laundry-flattening surface by Aissa Logerot is a similarly simple mirror – just what you need to see if the ironing process worked as planned and whether you are ready to take your freshly-pressed clothes out on the town.

A basic hinge system allows a user to convert it from one use to the other in one simple motion, with few moving parts making the flip-up process easy and the transforming technology less likely to break.
