They make me smile, but they'd be impossible to clean. I'd never want one.

Same here. Fabulous, but it's an enormous dust trap.

More art than practical furniture. Cute though.

Adorable. Would inspire me to keep the living room clean!

Furniture should not look like Food...

The third photo makes them look like the pods in Alien.

after a while they will look like rotting artichokes. i like them, but i would never let any body sit on one if i could afford one. i'm sure they cost a fortune.

Are these available to purchase, or is AT just taunting us again with prototypes we can never buy?
