My first thought upon seeing the cargo straps was: “Oh this is some bondage play shit isn’t it”
Found this great deal on a new chair for my living room. Almost 50% off!

You can get bondage gear for way less than $1888
CitizenKong@lemmy.world 11 months ago
But is it really bondage gear if it doesn’t hurt your wallet?

oh yeah
rope & straps are cheap at hardware stores

So hideous I’d consider buying it just to ruin the day of whomever gazes upon it.

If I saw that in someone’s house I’d think “well that’s terrible but no-one’s first woodworking project looks great, at least it’s creative problem-solving”.
Hearing the price tag is where I’d probably faint.

I have spent some time homeless and have legitimately seen homeless encampments with uh ‘decor’ that looks like this, albeit rusted and water logged.
Some stolen construction zone materials, some crackhead ingenuity and voila! ‘comfy’ chair.
This is about an average one bedroom apartment rent in the US for a ratchet ass chair (it literally has ratchets!) that can actually be assembled by toothless fentanyl addicts.
Fuck whatever this company is and anyone that buys this bullshit.

grrr I hate artists 😡😡
hperrin@lemmy.world 11 months ago
I will never understand why “shitty” is an aesthetic.
harry315@feddit.de 11 months ago
It is aesthetic, but none you need to pay thousands of bucks for

How charmingly quaint my good man! I think it will make the perfect bougie addition to my bare hardwood Manhattan flat. I’ll put it just next to the elevator. This must really be how the poor’s live!

My first thought is that this is meant for custom upholstery. If you're spending $1800 on a single chair, you're probably willing to shell out another grand or whatever to cover it in fabric that you like.
johannesvanderwhales@lemmy.world 11 months ago
SSENSE is a designer fashion store for the most part. So this is more like a functional art piece.
PP_BOY_@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Nope, that’s just the artist’s design . This really wouldn’t be a good frame for upholstery anyway
Tylerdurdon@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Where can I get one? Asking for a friend.
Blue_Morpho@lemmy.world 11 months ago
I’ll make you a personalized one for $1700. That’s a nice discount off the $1888 retail price.
PP_BOY_@lemmy.world 11 months ago
(uj/ I actually find this thing and the rest of the artist’s works fucking hilarious. I’d get one if I had the money to throw away)
mememuseum@lemmy.world 11 months ago
You could build one yourself for a fraction of the price with a trip to your local home improvement store. Even starting without tools, it would be cheaper.
MonkderDritte@feddit.de 11 months ago
Is this some sort of caricature of how the usual expensive chair looks bellow the fabric?
PP_BOY_@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Nah. If anything, I think this is more a parody of bricolage design.
Kolanaki@yiffit.net 11 months ago
Goes great with your giant cable spool coffee table.
