Hewn Stone Furniture by Max Lamb

We spotted these over at Kanye West's blog this morning (a surprisingly good spot for new design). Working with local quarries, British designer Max Lamb has commissioned a series of furniture made from Delaware bluestone...

On view now through November 7th at Johnson Trading Gallery, the show marks his US debut. What do you think? Obviously these would look amazing in a modern garden, but we think they could even more interesting paired with antique pieces indoors.

Cold, stark, uninviting. Great way to misuse nature in decor.

And frankly, the second picture looks like a tinfoil wrapped turd. I can't believe I just used that sentence, but does it not?

I think the only thing LESS comfortable would be this Radiator Chair: http://stylenorth.ca/blog/2008/10/folly-the-radiator-chair/

Um, yes can I order an unbelievably heavy piece of rock that will undoubtedly be the bane of my existence once I realize it's literally useless?

Thanks. Ill take 2.
