Jessica Carnevale's 'Stretch' chairs are a stimulating sight to behold. These [color-popping seats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/popo-chair) are creatively made with an assortment of materials such as bungee and latex rope that have been into [intricate patterns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ruffini) on the back and the seating of the chair.

Aside from looking psychedelic with the bright color combinations, don't these chairs look like a piece of furniture that you would look forward to sticking your butt into?
