Kabiljo, a Viennese designer house, created two odd signature furniture pieces at Milan Design Week 2011, both looking good enough to eat. The first is called the 'Let them Sit Cake,' featuring multiple fake bags of flour topped with luscious-looking "icing" for the sitting area.
The second creation by Kabiljo is a little more shudder-inducing and urban. Called 'Fat,' the piece is a soft seating option that's designed to look as if it's a piece of hung meat.
The pieces were created with inspiration from Marie Antoinette, who celebrated the Vienna food staples of ham and pastries. These Kabiljo designs are surely ones that would be perfect for any food-lover.
