Molo's Softseating ($130- $2,390) is made entirely from kraft paper with 50% recycled content. The paper is cut into a honeycomb-like structure that flexes to fan open into stools, benches and loungers. Not only is it flexible, it's versatile and compact; you can compress it like a book for easy storage. It was also recently acquired by the New York MOMA for their permanent collection. I can see the appeal of Softseating in a public space — it's fun, eye-catching, and memorable. But would you want this in your home?

I think it would be awesome for someone just starting out, but it depends on the price and how well it holds up. It's kind of interesting!
1I totally saw the inventors of this on an episode of "Small Space, Big Style" a few months back!
2Very odd...
3I think it is a great invention but pretty expensive for recycled paper...maybe it got that pricey because MOMA bought it...
4Very...interesting...I don't know what to think of it!
5Maybe if you had the space...but it just doesn't look comfortable. More of a conversation piece than a curl-up-and-watch-tv piece.
6it depends on how comfy it is, i'd want to test it out first..
7Whether I love it or hate it depends on how comfortable it is!
8I can see the appeal of it, though!
Especially if you have children!
9papercuts?
10If you can check out the Rococo exhibit at the Cooper Hewitt museum, they have a great piece like this one... plus the exhibit is very much worth seeing...
11This is different!
