SOFA_XXXX is made of no less than 8000 chopsticks. No lie. Each were cut into 4 different lengths and then reassembled with wire rings and what not to create individual x-shaped parts that enable the whole thing to expand and contract.
Its designer, Yuya Ushida, spent about 3 months constructing it. Yuya says the sofa can support three people under 155 pounds. To see a video of the sofa getting contracted, head on over to Freshome.
