New Furniture Ideas

Written by Jim the Realtor

December 12, 2010

Looking for ideas for furnishing your new digs?  How about the form-follows-function sofa.

From the designer:

A three dimensional model of the sofa is created with a computer program. The model consists of three curved faces which can be virtually unfolded. Next, these faces are manufactured from steel plates with a laser cutting process. The plates are bent and welded together to obtain the final shape of the sofa. All functionalities of the sofa are created from one continuous line.

    And sitting on cold metal is supposed to be comfortable?

    Probably as comfortable as those shoes the model is wearing.

    Sorry, but I’ll stick to IKEA and inflatable furniture – that stuff is too modern for me.

    Wow, a couch more uncomfortable than the one I have already. I’d love to own the house that couch is perfect for, however.

    Does the model come with the couch?

    haha, just noticed your new James Bond / Austin Powers category

    Lovely design. Would be great for those spots where you want people to sit for no more than about 15 minutes.

    Looks like a giant potato chip to me.

    Great. A MöbiuSofa.

    I have a soft spot for mid-century “Space-Age” designs, but this is venturing into Gerry Anderson territory, and not in a good way.

    I love her form and we know her function….
