When furniture becomes art, it also becomes timeless. Today's example is the Pantonova Chrome Sectional Couch. The modular couch was designed in 1971 by Verner Panton.
The vintage item is currently available at Modernicus, who explains that, "this vintage set of four features rigid chrome steel construction and clean fluid lines. Panton's outside-the-box thinking is evident in this seldom-seen design."
Implications - The Pantonova Chrome Sectional Couch comes without cushions, which are available for purchase if you choose. The wiry-looking chairs are made with storage spaces so that you can put things on their bottom racks. It would be the perfect spot for you to place books and magazines to jazz up the chair's look.
