Bae Se-hwa's bentwood pieces weren't the only things of his that caught our eye; the Korea-based artist also has another entire body of non-bentwood work.
His Lighting Table series, made of wood and acrylic, blew us away; the furniture appears to be solid wood, until you flip the switch.
Bae's Sightline Bookcase endeavors to reduce the stooping, tip-toeing and squinting one does when seeking books both high and low:
And his As You Want/Couple Chair is a tidy, clever piece of multifunctional furniture.
Check out more of Bae's stuff on his website.

this is very neat work.
i like the idea but see when it flips over how to you put your legs in under the table?
also if you go forward across from someone sitting and go in to whisper or kiss them or show them something wouldn't the back of the chair that was just a chair but then you know when if flips over wouldn't it go up and hit someone behind you when you bend over sitting like bending over the table to look at some papers?
I love the bookshelf. Simple and clever. Great idea.
Good, but bad execution of the top of the backrest - after it has been touching the ground (grass, dirty pavement...) someone uses it in the upright position and gets a dirty back...
