The Nefertiti Lounge by anOtherArchitect
The Berlin, Germany based anOtherArchitect group have created the Nefertiti Lounge concept, which they recently exhibited at the FURNEX show in Cairo, Egypt.
Description from the designers:
A low lounge which integrates a table element. It can be used as a laptop workspace, coffee table or relaxation seat. The sleek and feminine lines are inspired by the iconic bust of Queen NEFERTITI of Egypt.

I love it! Definitely need a fair amount of open space to make it look right & not crammed, but in the correct setting, this would be awesome! Less is always more. If there is one thing I could see different or as an additional option, it would be the side/add on table to be rounded/curvy, since the lounge itself is done in straight/geometric lines/shapes. Also, maybe the add on table could be done in a different material (thinking of a powder coded steel or something). But nevertheless, this piece rocks!

this architect does not appear to be in touch with scale. this piece is way too large. not likely an item that many people will want or have room for in their homes. I strongly doubt that he will sell even five of these

Why do you assume it’s designed for use in someone’s home?
Why do you assume this was designed to be sold?
Open your mind, and maybe you won’t be so judgemental.

I stand corrected. It could be donated to a outdoor park where citizens might find some sort of use for it. Skateboard ramp possibly..? It is a beautiful skateboard ramp. We all need to ‘open our minds’ and explore the underserved skateboard ramp market.
