This furry monster of a chair will make any living room fluffier.

The insanely comfortable looking [ball of seating fluff](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pillowsac-chair-jr) was designed by Jason Goh, who was inspired for the design by tales his grandmother used to tell him. Apparently, his grandmother would tell him that a furry monster would come and eat him up if he didn't stop playing with his food. These tales are helpfully illustrated in Goh's comic strip he drew to help promote the chair design.

As for the chair itself, it looks like the [most comfortable and cozy chair](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/calma-lounge-by-layer) ever produced. It's big enough that children and even smaller adults can fully fit inside. The chair is also bottom-weighted to ensure it doesn't roll around. A clever-placed tongue ensures that the [furry monster chair](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aifunghi) can more effectively eat its prey, or comfortably allow the user to relax.
