I have a habit of seeing a piece of furniture or a household artifact and constructing entire fictional rooms around them in my imagination. These DNA coffee tables go nicely in my imaginary science lab lounge.
One of my awesome readers sent this to me:
This chair is a collaboration between furniture designer Jimmie Martin and jewelry designer Hannah Martin.
Don’t you just want to take a seat and read some Edgar Allen Poe by candle light?
You can see more rogue furniture designs on Martin’s website.
Thanks, Kate!
I absolutely love Bryonie Porter’s collection of wallpapered furniture. This is great way to spruce up an old piece, or add a little color to a room.
Some are beautifully subtle as well.
See the rest of the collection here.
This post is really just a photo and my reaction to it: this piece of furniture looks hungry.
Despite my love of Victorian style, I’d be afraid this thing would devour and digest me. There’s no shortage of “artistic” furniture design aimed at looking menacing, but this one has unintentional sinister appeal.
Now, here’s something I don’t find myself saying every day:
This chair is too muscular for me.

I guess he’s not ULTRA buff. He hasn’t been drinking protein shakes and telling people to “spot him,” but he clearly works out more than I usually like my furniture to do so.
Found here.
Here is one DIY furniture piece I never would have envisioned: a magazine coffee table.

Designer Vered Zaykovsky constructed this table out of glass and six identical magazine copies.

Believe it or not, there is no cutting or gluing involved…only the careful and precise interweaving of the paper.
I really love something about this unlikely choice for a sofa design, by Gaetano Pesce.

This may be the closest a delicate lady like me ever gets to scaling high mountains. Look at that rocky terrain, those dangerous peaks and valleys…and perfect placement of waterfalls.


It’s definitely worth looking through the rest of Gaetano Pesce’s site. Surreal and bizarre creations abound.
Hmmm…my library definitely needs some Fossil Stone Furniture.

What a great combination of majesty and decay. Too bad the prices are only available upon request (usually a sure indicator that it’s out of this little lady’s current budget).
