Description

This text identifies 12 principles of collapsibility (stress, folding, creasing, bellows, assembling, hinging, rolling, sliding, nesting, inflation, fanning, concertinas) and looks at examples of each in turn, before examining collapsibility in furniture of all kinds, from chairs and tables to sofas and storage.
