In a stunning departure from the mode of typical concept furniture, the “Switch” chair-thing actually looks rather comfortable. Cock it back on its side and the ball inside is a lounger; roll the ball out and use it as a table, albeit one that won’t easily let you fit your knees underneath.
It does look like a few of them have been manufactured — the designer even talks about the unique serial numbers on them — but it doesn’t seem they’re actually for sale.

Doesn’t sitting in a little pod compromise your dignity as a human being? Because my couch totally does not do that.
Comfortable? Maybe, as long as you dont get too relaxed. I suspect that if you lean too far back when in ‘chair mode’ the ball might suddenly shoot across the room and you land on the floor.
