Furnishings Fit for Halloween
If you were really evil, how would you furnish your home?
Or should we say your lair? Here at Political Calculations, we occasionally ask questions that most people, aside from a handful of motion picture set designers, ever think about asking. Today, that means considering some of the most unusual furniture designs that caught our attention over the past year.
Let’s start with lighting, shall we? Sure, you could opt for pitch blackness, but really, if you’re going to be effective at being evil, you still need to see what you’re doing.
That doesn’t mean you can’t do it in style! Especially if you opt to install Kelly Lamb’s Skull Chandelier in your dining room (HT: Core77):
Next, let’s set the mood with a little music, shall we? To us, aside perhaps for a Lady Gaga soundtrack, nothing creates a sense of discomfort quite like this laptop desk with speakers from French designer Claire Marion, who was inspired to add hair extensions to them:
Why no, that’s not creepy at all! Not if you’re genuinely evil, that is.
Moving on, let’s consider your seating situation. Of course, you’ll need a chair that sets you apart from all who enter your home, and for our money, you can’t do much better than this $30,000 replica of the seven-foot tall throne of swords inspired by the Game of Thrones television series:
That leaves your guest seating. Might we suggest what Barry Ritholtz might use to furnish his own home office, and point you toward the “Mutation” series of foam-bubble inspired chairs designed by Maarten de Ceulaer:
Admittedly, what you gain in style is a price you’ll pay in comfort. But, being evil, you probably won’t want to advertise the fact that you have any comfortable chairs about in your home. And that’s where Matali Crasset’s Decompression Chair comes into play – for those times when you need an emergency comfy armchair deployment in your drawing room:
Meanwhile, you might offer to seat your guests in Kouichi Okamoto’s aluminum wire Composition Chairs:
Obviously, that chair is for people you like. You’ll need something really disquieting for people you don’t like. And that’s the space where Sebastian Errazuriz “Chicken Chair” will fit into your decor. Because being poised over poultry is just plain creepy:
Finally, you’ll need a special piece of furniture that simply encourages your unwanted guests to leave, or that you can use to unconventionally exit them from your domain. Meet Igor Lobanov’s Wormhole chair:
Just suggest to your guests that you have the ability to flush them into another dimension, and your problem with unwanted guests will likely go away!
Happy Halloween!
