    Couch by Fabio Novembre.
    I want this. Probably can’t afford it.

      Surprise, SHE likes it too. But we still can’t afford it, and I haven’t even bothered to check the price.

        I usually toss my couches when they get to that stage.

          I'd see that as more a 'conversation piece' than a couch I'd want to live with and look at for a long time.

            Simpler is better, except when complicated looks really cool.

              Just change the legs on your present couch and get some new cushions made by an upholstery shop.

                More like funhouse design, I'd say

                    Clever. Too goddamn clever; fun to look at for three minutes, but otherwise self-indulgent silliness by a designer who in this case put a lot more effort into looking clever than designing something useful. And the uneven sloping arms would make it uncomfortable, too. (Sorry, I have some unpleasant associations with this kind of thing; the closest I ever came to punching someone at work was an industrial designer. )

                      Actually I don’t think of it as a fun design but more of a gimmick design. The back pillows and the arm rests will be uncomfortable at all in service of the gimmick.

                        Its for folks who redecorate with the seasons, or annually. Some whimsy for the wealthy, or for the lobby of a business.

                        There are two kinds of boaters: those who have run aground, and those who lie about it.

                            I feel like it just needs the right nautical painting, maybe something like a nice tempest, to go on the wall behind it.
