THe Muslavi Gallery in the UK is a distributor of Laskowscy Design furniture. Their designs try to blur the edge of where the object ends and something else begins. For example the graphic on the Ikebana coffee table spills onto the floor.
The Artistic 4 Chaise can be yours for the low, low, low price of $6,500 + shipping.... ok I don't mean to be sarcastic.

In addition to the ergonomically correct construction, this chaise will make a statement in any room.
