Uncomfortable Furniture Week: Pixelated Chair
April 24, 2010Uncomfortable Furniture Week: Water Bottles and Weapons
April 23, 2010There’s no mention of the actual designer on the source page, but this lounge chair is made of hundreds of small water bottles. When I hear the term “Aqua Lounge Chair” I think of something a bit more…blissful. Now, when I hear “Throne of Weapons,” I’m pretty sure bliss isn’t anywhere in the picture. But […]
Uncomfortable Furniture Week: Misc Mashup #2
April 22, 2010Here are some more selections I saved from Oddee. This one doesn’t really qualify for the “uncomfortable” theme. Maybe some would find it uncomfortable to look at “ghost chairs,” but I actually think they are pretty wonderful. Made of paper strips, this fellow looks like the colorful cousin of Snuffleupagus.

The “Evolution and Love” chair. No, I don’t get it either. Sometimes people take the “eco friendly” thing a bit too far. I’d venture to […]
Uncomfortable Furniture Week: Tufted Pigs
April 21, 2010These life sized pigs by Yvonne Fehling and Jennie Peiz are chairs…of sorts. I’m reminded of Helena Bonham Carter yelling “I need a pig here!” (to rest her feet on) in the new Alice in Wonderland film. Swanky swines in your home…yay or nay? Source
Uncomfortable Furniture Week: FUNature
April 20, 2010This environmentally friendly design by Hugh Hayden takes its inspiration for the ball pits that children play in. The FUNature furniture line is made up of non-toxic, repurposed, low-density polyethylene (salvaged tennis balls), put together in a patent-pending tension matrix. The pieces are flexible and adjustable, adapting to the user’s body and position much like […]
Uncomfortable Furniture Week: Alessandro Mendini
April 20, 2010I have no idea what this chair may feel like to sit on, but I find it visually uncomfortable. Source
Uncomfortable Furniture Week: Antique Radiator Chair
April 20, 2010Nicely constructed, though certainly not the most comfortable place to lounge around: Source
Uncomfortable Furniture Week
April 17, 2010I’ve been collecting links of obscenely uncomfortable looking furniture, figuring I’d eventually do a theme week with them. That time has arrived! Next week will be Uncomfortable Furniture Week here on SheWalksSoftly. If you have any links/pictures of crazy furniture, please share! Or just sit back and enjoy…
