Though I might be butchering the original concept of this work, I can definitely see some variations that feature political and historical figures and/or CEOs.

I saw a store called “Once A Tree Furniture” on my way to a friend’s place today. That, my friend, is not a good name on so many levels.

To me, this Il Falso Kandinsky line has a stronger personality than the full moon dresser that is the object of desire for many. Of course, since I am an avid reader of Japanese manga, it would have been interesting to see either Monster or Pluto artwork on the dressers and cabinets, and it would have taken the work to an completely different meaning with a different cultural reference.
p.s. yeah, how did you know? I am a huge huge Naoki Urasawa fan.
p.s. I wonder, from a technical point of view, if they have found a way to ensure the illustration on the cabinet can resist fading and discolouration due to repetitive use.

I love this process of materializing privacy to an actual object. But I appreciate core77 even more for not praising this product to be what it is not: sustainable/environmental friendly. Because using substantial amount of material to dress up small amount of “recycled” material is not sustainable, in fact it is the opposite of it.
But, with the sustainability issue out of the way, it is a piece of work that is as poetic as it is beautiful.

Takuan said “There should some plastic droppings sold with the stools,to scatter underneath. Further, this item has inspired me:the Stool Stool. It will be disgusting.” And the only appropriate reaction is a nod and a long sigh.

I don’t think I can have one at home sitting there, waiting and calling for me to sit or lie down on it. Maybe when I gets to be 80 years old. Or just having a bad day. Hmm, come to think of it, I actually do want one now. Oh, it costs a small sum of change that is 4,500 dollars.
Also, I think some one needs to register millionairegoth.com domain per boing boing, and fast.

Arr… seeing these brings me back to the days of roaming in the warehouse as a kid. (Sadly the modification doesn’t do it for me aesthetically.)
