There’s nothing like coming home and wrapping yourself in the arms of a loved one…or a bizarre-looking chair.
Don't have anyone to hold? No worries.
South Korean designer Lee Eun Kyoung created a furry sofa with soft flexible arms, which are meant to give the feeling of being held by a loved one.
Stretched out, the chair looks like a person, waiting to hug you, Kyoung told A'Design Award committee. “Because the sofa gives the feeling of being alive, it will hold you warm and soft like your mother, friend, and a lover without feeling lonely.”
The unique sofa, which has detachable arms, won a A' Design Award in the Furniture, Decorative Items and Homeware Design Award Category, according to a March 28 statement.
The "free hug sofa" took two years to create, according to the statement.
