*The Billund table offer multiple functions with a small footprint*

Extended domestic confinement has made us all think about our personal space. And for many of those in major, fashionable – read expensive – cities, realising how little of it we actually have. There are a couple of options. You can leave, head for the country or the suburbs and upsize your square footage. Or can you stay and be a little smarter with what you have.

As long-time [BoConcept designer Morten Georgsen](https://boconcept-contract.co.uk/meet-our-designers/) says, ‘London is horrendously expensive and Copenhagen is the same now. And we are being squeezed into smaller and smaller environments. So you have to think, “How do I optimise the few square feet I have?”.’

*Designed by Morten Georgsen, the Billund matches a sophisticated elegance with space-saving flexibility*

One of Georgsen’s own designs for BoConcept might be part of the solution. The Billund Table 0058. A simple, super-functional idea, in the grand tradition of Danish Design, the Billund is two tables in one: a four-legged four (or more) seater dining table or, with a simple flip and fold, a half-sized, three-legged two-seater for breakfast spreads or intimate dinners. Of course, it can also double-up as part-time desk or work table. The Billund comes in matt white, with striking exposed oak ankles, or in matt black with a walnut veneer top for a darker kind of sophistication.

*Georgsen’s design was a perfect fit for URBAN RIGGER, an affordable housing project that created apartments out of up-cycled shipping containers  
*

The Billund proved its potential in small spaces as part of the [URBAN RIGGER project](https://boconcept-contract.co.uk/projects/urban-rigger-copenhagen/). Designed as an affordable housing solution, URBAN RIGGER is a scalable, floating community of small apartments crafted out of up-cycled shipping containers. A smart space-saver, the Billund is a perfect fit.
