  Home library

  When all your walls are filled with book shelves, but you don’t want a random couch in the middle of the room.

    Hey, there we go. That makes sense.

  I feel like this is the type of item meant specifically for rich people to waste their money on. You’ll never actually use it, but it does look expensive when your house guests walk past it.

  I could see this used like a therapist chair, where two people will be conversing at length and would like to both be comfortable, to face each other, and don’t necessarily need a table between them. It certainly would be interesting to arrange this in a space, but the closeness does evoke a sense of privacy and coziness.

  The fanciness could make it workable in a space-constrained high-rise office, say Chicago or SF.

    Idk.

    Particularly with the rounded corners; it seems to divide/push you away from each other more than invite a conversation.

    Some of the other chair examples in the comments are a bit more close and personal.

    I just can’t really picture any of them in a home. Maybe waiting room/lobby office furniture… 🤷
