Summary
The Hidey Cube is a childcare furniture product designed to provide classrooms with a multi-purpose, deployable structure. This design helps teachers save space by collapsing to a compact, flat configuration while not in use.
The Hidey Cube is identifiable by its foldable sides which allows the structure to have a compact storage size. The folding method presented for the Hidey Cube eliminates the need for assembly/disassembly when moved in and out of spaces.
This is a small-scale and modified model of a potential product for use in a childcare facility, used to demonstrate the application of an origami-inspired idea. See the full-scale model on Instructables here.
