I like the thinking behind this furniture design. It presents us with something unexpected. I particularly like that it encourages us to think about the objects in our lives as whether they are really what we think they are.
I think the question it asks is “Does the decorative and functional elements of design have to be the same object“? Take a look and let me know what you think.

Here is a short and delightful telephone automated response message – allegedly from an Australian High School.
The reason for including it here (other than it being very amusing) is that it lists what might be perceived as problems – until the final option that summaries the actual problem. What it illustrates is that our first thoughts in a problem solving situation are often quite superficial and based on unchallenged assumptions. Pushing on and challenging the assumptions will ultimately get you to the real problem. And therefore a real solution.
