But there\u2019s an important distinction between appreciation and application, and not every uniquely designed piece of furniture is going to suit the well-planned aesthetics of our very own homes.

It was inspired by the work of Dutch furniture designer and architect, Gerrit Rietveld, as well as Bauhaus style which typically opts for abstract, geometric aesthetics.

Equal parts functional chair and detailed sculpture, <strong>Giant Red King Crab Sculptural Chair<\/strong> by Design Toscano weighs in at a whopping 116 lbs.
