Design Q's MAXCABIN sideways seating concept for short-haul travel continues to amuse and bemuse. Design Q has revealed that MAXCABIN evolved from a project conducted by Design Q for a primary school classroom.

Want to see how it all got started? Check out the anatomy of Design Q's idea (below).

It makes for a more interesting start than, say, a paper napkin drawing.

As reported here, Design Q is pushing forward with crash tests of its sideways seating idea in the near-term. Yes, the company is serious about the project, even though the majority of folks seem far less pleased with sideways seating than these cutie pie kids do with their new classroom (as evidenced by a torrent of negative comments).
