Seat of LOVE

World-famous furniture designer Karim Rashid designed the Loveseat for Veuve Clicquot.


Actually, came to know about this fab creation randomly a while back but finally saw one for myself at Play; unjustly tucked away in one miserable corner. Their idea of a romantic tuck-away? Boo!!!

BTW, for the uninitiated, Veuve Clicquot is a French Champagne brand, who've engaged many top designers to pen peripheral products to help boost the brand's image among the rich and trendy.


The fashion house of Italian designer Emilio Pucci designed this achingly cute ice-jacket for French Champagne brand Veuve Clicquot Ponsardin. The insulated zip-up suit launched as a limited edition with a bottle of La Grande Dame 1996. It uses thermo-compressed foam to keep wine cool for up to two hours without the need for an ice bucket.

Anyway, back to the Love Seat,
Just be sure of four things,

1) It should be the centre piece of any living space preferably a stand-alone by full-glass windows.

2) Your significant other had better not be way heavier than you or be prepared to topple over . That dry-clean-only couture will be ruined.

3) Be prepared to have backaches if you intend any kisses or cross-arm drinking. Rules of thumb, sit prim and proper and stick to fly rather than french kisses, because if your back goes into spasm, so much for being romantic.

4)....... ..... >>



>>.... Lastly, for gawd sakes, toss the cheap beer and get a real Veuve Clicquot.

Respect the designer!

B'cos, if you're gonna spend US$10 thousand dollars +++ for this chair, you'd better be !!! :)

Apparently, according to the Designer of Love Seat,

The inspiration behind is actually a flower.

Indeed, you can see the petals (the seats) and the stigma (the central bottle/ice holder)

Ingenue!!
