YiAhn Bassinet
There is a real trend towards convertible baby furniture, and this product called Yiahn aims to please parents who love this concept.
YiAhn is not only a normal bassinet; when the baby outgrows his bassinet, it can also be used for storage such as a toy bin and a mini bookshelf with drawers. As the baby becomes a child, it can convert into a set of a chair and a table for children. It can also be used as a bassinet again, if the family has a second baby.
YiAhn Bassinet is made out of Plyboo®. Plyboo is a term for laminated bamboo plywood which is made from 100% rapidly renewable bamboo, using adhesives that are both strong and low-emitting. Plyboo® plywood is a unique green alternative in the sheet goods industry.
Dimensions: 31" H x 39" W x 17" D. Materials: Plyboo® bamboo plywood, stainless steel, chrome metal. Mattress: 2" thick, high density foam, fire and moisture resistant.
This bassinet was designed and made by a Dad for his baby named YiAhn. The design and building of this product is a love story from a Dad to his baby.
Before I became a dad, I wanted to do something for my baby and decided to design and make a bassinet for my baby. I wished to make a bassinet that fulfills a functional purpose but should also serve the wants and needs of my growing baby. I found problems with research of existing products. A bassinet is one of the most important pieces of furniture for newborn babies. But as babies grow, they usually outgrow their bassinet in three months. After that time, it is a useless object and is also too expensive to use for such a short period of time. To set a reasonable price of the bassinet as a manufacturer, the restricted level of production cost has limited the improvement of the products' quality. I made an effort to solve the problems. The bassinet was designed to meet the needs of each phase of my growing baby. The bassinet can be used for many years by transforming into storage, chair, and table. I completed to build up the bassinet and my baby, YiAhn is sleeping in the bassinet now.

As far as I can tell this product is not yet available for retail sale, however it did win the Red Dot design award for 2008, so I am sure it wont be long before we will see it available.
