Designer Lila Jang's Canape is certainly not your typical sofa. For starters, the corner piece looks as if it's going to climb the wall, with three feet on the floor and three on the wall.
The eye-catching design has a rebellious attitude and 'personality' that elevates it to more than just a piece of furniture.
Plus, you can use it to sit or lay down and read a book, thanks to the resulting arch.
The peculiar design was recently featured in an exhibition called Parcours Saint-Germain in Paris, France.
