Pet-Resembling Furniture

The Puppy Sofa by Monocomplex Looks Like Man's Best Friend

— June 17, 2014 — Art & Design
The Puppy Sofa is a couch that resembles a cute pooch, for all of those individuals who love their pets so much the next logical step in the relationship is to buy furniture that looks similar.

The couch uses a beige and brown color scheme to help define the different sections of a dog's face and ensure that the sofa looks as close as possible to the animal while still being functional. The front of the couch has a brown tip to resemble the nose, with pouches on either side to mimic the floppy ears of a dog. Whether or not one's pet will be allowed to rest on the couch is a completely different matter, and is dependent on whether owners mind a bit of hair on the Puppy Sofa.
