Whoever said money can't buy happiness obviously never heard about the Free Hug Sofa.
Created by South Korean designer Lee Eun Kyoung, the plush, comfy chairs are made out of super soft material and have arms that can wrap around your body when you need a good hug.
For his creative invention, Kyoung won a bronze medal in the A'Design Award committee's furniture design competition. As he explained to the committee,
The long arm stretched out resembles humans and looks like saying 'Come here I will hold you in my arms.' Because the sofa gives the feeling of being alive, it will hold you warm and soft like your mother, friend and a lover without feeling lonely. It will present the dream of innocent childhood by giving the feeling of the soft heart of mother or the arms of the doll wrapping around you in your childhood.
Yes, this chair looks just as splendidly creepy as it sounds.
Sleep on it any old which way.
You deserve to be loved -- by a chair.
Has your SO ever looked this stylish?
The usability is unlimited for user preference. It can provide a play material to children, a plastic sheet or a laptop pad to teenagers, the convenience of breastfeeding to the mother, the warm stomach to women and the comfortable back to the elderly.
A warm stomach is all I ever wanted in a sofa.
