Pop Couch Quiz

I love eco-artware. I swear they always have something you can fall for. Today I saw something I missed back in the day; an archive item, but spectacular.

Can you tell what it’s made of? If you can guess tell me in the comments. You could just go look, and then leave a comment, but that’s so karma damaging, that I just won’t know what to do with you. By the way, I thought it was made out of something else – not what it really is.

Hey, there is a genius in the house today… his name is David Delthony. I’m not sure what else to say but genius. Maybe I’ll say it a few more times -  genius genius genius! Just look at what he does to wood:

And then he does this…

Holy genius, right. A nicely folded over wooden desk – he calls it the “clam” – funny. You can order items from his site; where, by the way, he has many more treats for you to see. Amazing stuff. His wife and him, have a studio/workshop deal in Utah. Next time I go through Utah, I’m stopping. (I actually go through Utah a lot – not sure how that happens).

Bookshelf:

The blogger / architect student, who runs the site Weirdomatic, has an entire collection of weird bookcases – none of which I’d ever seen. So that was great. You have to see, there are maybe ten others.

My favorite find, possibly of the year so far, are these:

Scrabble seating! My sister would die. She’s a total Scrabble freak. How cool. This is at one of my fave sites freshome. There are more pics, including close-ups at freshome.

Don’t forget to tell me what that first couch is made of.
