Yes. Yes. Yes. I absolutely adore that we live in a world where someone who dreams this up can actually see it through to manufacturing and distribution. May I introduce the loope... innovative seating at its finest.

IT’S JUST SCREAMING FOR A HOTWHEEL, but loope is intended mainly for oh-so-practical adult sensibilities. Made from red oak, a single loope offers seating for two that is not quite intimate yet not quite exposed; high density foam padding keeps tushes comfy. Conceptually several variations have been explored with modularity in mind; we personally would have killed for an endlessly looping tunnel if we were still in grade school.

I'm not sure who to thank first, designer Victor Aleman for his conceptual idea come to life or PadStyle for raising my awareness. Something tells me these will be popping up in chic spaces in Milan, Copenhagen and Miami quite soon. Lord knows I hope so.
