The Inner Life Chair is yet another piece of furniture that bridges the gap between man-made products and natural habitats. A simple, yet stunning sanctuary for all living creatures, it can be a home for animals and plants as well as tushes of all shapes and sizes.
Created by Martin Azua, the Inner Life Chair is an eco-friendly furniture piece that boasts a planter that allows foliage to grow from its side and a hollow space in the back that offers animals such as tortoise, pups and kittens a safe and comfortable shelter.
Exquisitely unique, the Inner Life Chair brings a touch of the outdoors in while also providing a practical piece of furniture at the same time. I love that its minimal look lets the greenery really pop out.
