The Modern Obelisk

Dedon-1

And it does something too. DEDON's Obelisk is a modular piece of furniture that also doubles as a display of art. Made up of smaller sections, the Obelisk explores how it's form can become chairs and coffee tables. It challenges you to find new ways of creating units while also challenging the idea that stacked furniture has to look ugly and stacked.

I'm not so much impressed with the idea. I'm more impressed with it's final shape when completely assembled. That thing looks phallic and I love all things phallic.
