The Anima Causa "Feel" Seating System is bizarre enough to call it hot. The 'system' is comprised of 120 fabric covered balls which are connected by elastics. The Anima Causa seeting system moves around you, you can fold it up, and position it any way you like. Unfortunately, I think you need someone inside it to make it look cool. Otherwise it may look like any other pile of fabric balls in your house.
