It looks impressive.
You can stand on the chair if you can maintain your equilibrium.
You can rock the ladder while hanging from it.
and swing!
and tumbl!
And trying to calmly terminate your capriols….
It is hilarious: Jacob Williams

Recently DesignBoom came across rest a public art installation created by dutch artists martijn engelbregt and miguel brugman. engelbregt was invited to create the installation as part of a summer arts festival. not only is it an art installation but it also a dining experience. he was inspired whilst cooking and realised how much food he wasted and in turn wanted to make people aware of how much food gets wasted in households. food served include edible wild plants that are gathered from the local area, cooked by engelbregt. the idea of rest came from picnic tables that are often located along major highways around the world known as rest stops. read more: http://www.egbg.nl

Bifurcations by Robert Stadler
Work by Austrian designer Robert Stadler is on show at the Carpenters Workshop Gallery in London in an exhibition entitled Bifurcations.
Exhibition highlights:Pools & Pouf!
2004, five leather elements, dimensions variable, edition of 8The three-dimensional Pools & Pouf! consists of several different sized leather elements positioned on the floor and fixed to the wall. Resembling pools of tar, the forms seem to have sporadically reproduced on the gallery plane. The enigmatic pieces upholstered in black leather allude to the conventional Chesterfield sofa yet through its deconstruction directly question the tradition of furniture. Stadler contemplates the idea of furniture as a parasite to the home, both seemingly co-dependant upon each other.
