I Want This

Filed under: Art, Cool Ish, Design, Random

chair

I find a lot, I mean a lot of random things on the Interwebs. I don’t share 90% of them as it would be way too much to post. I have a folder I save all this random ish in, pictures tucked away neatly for me to look at and laugh, ponder or get inspired by. Now feels like a good time to start breaking some of these pictures out and sharing them. I’ll start with this chair. I have no info on it, don’t know who makes it or where it comes from. All I know is it can be found in the Hotel Fasano de Rio de Janeiro and it looks super inviting.  Not only does this chair scream “sit on me,” but if you had this in the crib, it would be the ultimate conversation starter everytime somebody came over.  This chair is part furniture, part art piece, and I need one in my life.

This Mona Lisa tribute is made up of 3,604 cups of coffee! Take a close look and see the detail that is required to not only get the right color coffee in the different cups, but to also fill each cup to a specific level. Pretty impressive stuff.
