Fun Fantastical Furniture

This site may have been posted here once before, but it's one of my favorites and worth checking out again.  Straight Line Designs, based in Vancouver, Canada, designs and builds Alice-in-Wonderland-esque pieces that are both fun and functional.

Bookcases stack haphazardly, like a giant tossed them into the air. Cabinets with names like "Oops" and "Boom" appear to have had run-ins with things wild and wonderful. Others, like Joined at the Hips and Sobey, bend and twist, yet have perfectly aligned drawers. 

One of my favorites (although I'm not so sure I'd want it in MY living room) is the Bad Table.

I've seen the Children's Hospital one. It's awesome!  They've done several play areas in hospitals, as well as malls, cruise ships, and airports.  They also did some of the Spirit Bear In the City and Orcas In the City sculptures around BC.

Many years ago I hired this company to build the basket of a Hot Air Balloon as a play area for the kids in a medical clinic.  It was fabulous.  Some of their work can be seen in the Childrens' Hospital in Vancouver.
