This is a gallery of real furniture, though you may find that hard to believe. It’s incredibly impractical unless, of course, you are an alien.
1. Adelta Ball Chair, designed by Eero Aarnio in 1966
Do you remember Yoda’s chair in the Jedi Council, or the Energy Pod from the Woody Allen movie Sleeper? It comes from the same design planet.
It’s customizable with speakers for the high-tech experience.
