Friday’s Photo


April 20th, 2012

Continuing  last Friday’s theme of questionable design choices. Today’s photo comes from Restoration Hardware’s new “deconstructed” furniture line.

Restoration Hardware

I don’t know about you but I can’t wrap my head around spending $2,545.00 for a sofa that looks like something you stole from the upholster before they started to work on it.

So I ask you friends…love it?    or love it not?

    not, it’s too kitschy and silly. really…

  • Andrea Brooks says:

    Ummmmmm….no. May be interesting for a photograph but not for everyday living.

  • Love it not! I’m into the whole industrial chic look, but this is a bit of a stretch… without the fabric ;-) I really like your fun Friday photo posts! Have a great weekend, Linda :-)

  • Nirma Raffi says:

    I think the appeal is very limited. Maybe for a great New York City loft or a pied-à-terre in Paris. The rest of us mere mortals need some fabric on our couches!

  • Kelly says:

    They should have just saved the money on the HUGE catalog they just sent out. Maybe they should use their money elsewhere!

    • Linda Holt says:

      OMG Kelly, when I got that catalog I couldn’t believe it! It was like a phone book! As a matter of fact, it is still wrapped in plastic on my desk. I haven’t even opened it yet.

  • Beverley says:

    This trend will last about a minute! If I spend that kind of money I want something to live with for years.
    Where’s the beauty?

    • Linda Holt says:

      Beverley, I have to say I completely agree with you. I think Restoration Hardware has taken a wrong turn down the design path.

  • LUis says:

    I think the prices are high but I think the art of it is beautiful. Look at the wood work and stitching. Theres not a piece a furniture that cost’s half that price that is built this well or that looks that cool. As a matter of fact I have been “picking” pieces of truly vintage furniture to do the same thing to them. These are I believe replicas of vintage furniture. I can’t imagine they would be able to “pick” the amount of furniture they are selling. Either way I am in love with how they look and wish I could be on their team of designers…I’d settle to be a fly on the wall:)
