When I first came across this design, I was immediately intrigued by its crumbled appearance. The form is suggestive of wasted scraps, but I knew from its sleek high gloss finish that it had to have a meaningful use.

Any guesses for what this piece is used for? I’ll give you a hint as to scale: it definitely would not fit on your kitchen counter.

What the...?

I can’t wait to see what you all come up with! Be sure to check back to tomorrow for the answer.

    Are y'all gonna kill me if I guess? ;) I say it's a bench, like the reverse of a tete-a-tete, with a seat on each side.

    I'd say a modern sofa/bench. Although it doesn't look super comfortable…

    It's a love seat with a seat on each side..back- to- back instead of side-to-side.

    I think this is a modern conversation chair….where as one person can sit facing out and the other sits facing the opposite direction, yet the two sitters can converse.

    Yep! It's a modern twist on the gossip bench! I'm with Pixie on this one.
