@ rural: no need to have a fit. It was donated by a generous patron. We've also begun to see this furniture pop up in shelters all over the country because shelters realize that it's part of their renovation. No one wants to cheapen a multi-million dollar renovation with 9.99 lawn chairs as furniture. Especially those generous donors whose names are on the building.

BSartist: what a shelter needs is furniture that doesn't smell from dog pee. And the Bubble Club series is plastic, so we haven't had to replace it as we used to have to replace the old furniture. That it's designed so well is a bonus, but the plastic is what sold us.

I work in a no-kill animal shelter that recently got a state-of-the-art renovation. We furnished our "get-to-know-you" rooms with Kartell's Bubble Club sofas and chairs. They're stylish, durable and easy to clean! We love Kartell at The Humane Society Naples!

Love, Actually is fast becoming a Christmas classic and deservedly so.

However, you left off "Meet Me in St. Louis", in which Judy Garland first sang 'Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas'. Still makes me shiver.

Love it, and love Bug.

It's got that international, eclectic aesthetic that's usually too overdone or overthought. Yours isn't; I would live there in a New York minute--but only if Bug were included. :)

Love it and love the sleekness of the wood. Wonderful results.

Seriously, yours is the one that made me stop lurking and join AT. Love so much of it, but especially the prominence of the critters.

Your blog has me hooked, too. Great job all around!
