Funky cardboard Gehry-esque furniture, right?

Not exactly. They're actually Corrugated Cat Scratchers from San Francisco's Everyday Studio. But they're modern, cool, and attractive enough that you don't have to rush to toss them in the closet when guests are on their way over. They're also made of non-toxic cardboard and adhesives, and the bright colors come from zero-VOC, non-toxic paint. (In fact, these particular colors are exclusive to Branch.)

$84-$168 at Branch.
