Unique and Crazy Overgrown Household

This Unique and Crazy Overgrown Household was designed by Robert Therrien , he is wellknown designer and best.

Robert Therrien is a creative American artist with an impressive and unusual design portfolio. But it wasn’t until Robert created these truly unique overgrown household items that he became famous and was overwhelmed with media attention. And we can definitely understand why this occurred. Inspired by childhood fairy-tales, the “Larger than life” collection includes giant versions of common furniture elements such as chairs and tables. We even noticed there are some huge plates involved also. The set is fun, unique, original and certainly worth sharing. Even though this collection can not be considered “practical”, we think some of these giant tables would go great in a public park. After all, most cities could really use some creative projects in matters of urban furniture. Can you think of any other practical alternative?-via Toxel.com
