The ‘Pipeline’ seating by Harry Allen will give your living room an industrial feeling. However, these benches were specifically designed to be placed in a public space rather than in your living room.
Harry Allen’s seats comprise four different pipe cushions that are joined by a cross connector. According to Contemporist, the ‘Pipeline’ designs are “upholstered with polyurethane foam over an MDF and solid wood frame.” This makes for some funky seating, don’t you think?
