We always had a sense that extraterrestrial life existed. We knew aliens live among us. But what we also always knew is that they are made by man. Just one look at this collection of furniture designed by dutch artist Marteen Baas will leave everyone in agreement.
The collection named 'The Chankley Bore' debuted at the Milan design fair last month, and will be seen again at the Maarten Baas exhibition held at the Established & Sons LIMITED gallery during the Frieze Art Fair in October 2008.
