    Just above the straw, the cushion looks like a top lip. The chair is hungry.

    ...and the straw dangling down from the mouth looks like it’s salivating....
  • It’s an interesting design idea outdoors (not with upholstery though), indoors with watering and everything it would just be impractical.

    That's like the "send on your home video" slot houseplants guy on GW a few weeks back. He had so many he couldn't even move around his apartment, even the bath and shower were full of plants.

    Very impressive dedication to grow and care for so many healthy plants, but I wonder how he lives day to day, it must be impractical.

    That chair picture. I’ve just this minute spotted, above the chair back, what looks like a monkey in a hat being hanged...

    Paraphrasing Flanders and Swann' 'Design for Living' (written in the 1950s) 

    "We're terribly house and garden at number seven-b
    We live in a most amusing mews 
    Ever so very contemporary.
    We're terribly house and garden, now at last we've got the chance
    The garden's full of furniture and the house is full of plants.
    It doesn't make for comfort but it simply has to be
    You mustn't be left behind the times furnishing company.
    We're frightfully House and Garden at number seven-B
    The walls are patterned with shrunken heads
    Ever so very contemporary
    With little screens and bottle lamps
    And motifs here and there
    Mobiles in the air
    Ivy everywhere!
    You mustn't be surprised to find a cactus in your chair
    But we call it Home Sweet Home
    We're terribly House and Garden, as I think we've said before
    But though 7b is madly gay
    It wouldn't do for every day
    We actually LIVE in 7a
    In the house next door"

    They hung a monkey.
    They elected a monkey.
     London elected Johnson.
    Then the whole b****y country elected johnson
    Maybe we should try the monkey.
