Richard Woods and Sebastian Wrong like to play tricks with bricks. They collaborated on a series of chairs and sofas for the British company Established & Sons. The furniture isn’t made of bricks and mortar; the upholstery uses a screen printed fabric giving the user a comfortable embrace rather than a brick in the behind.

Thus, couches, chairs and tables are being released bearing the oddest of inspirations, such as the Estavlished & Sons brick chair. This serves as a tale to other companies to ensure an element of fantasy is instilled in all products.
