The Optimus by Thomas Abraham is a morphable furniture piece that transforms in size, shape and purpose. Because it can be multi-used and multi-purposed, it limits the number of furniture in the room thereby providing free space. It is made of sheesham wood (from renewable plantations that are environmentally friendly with low carbon footprints).

It is in every way an 'Environment first' Design, prioritizing handmade design, sustainability, durability, recycling and reusing material, waste management, reduction of carbon footprint and economically affordable design. This design is as cosmopolitan as it gets, with a glocal (global + local) sensibility with diversity and universal value – furniture that would fit in every home, in any culture.

The Optimus is a part of Thomas Abraham's acclaimed furniture collection, which is called The Transformer Collection. The collection is a set of 14 morphable pieces of furniture that transform from time to time according to the need of its user.

Check out the Optimus and show some love – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=afQJeftO2sI
