5 Ugly Sofas Found in 15 Seconds

The love of interior design has to encompass the good and the bad design. But when it's bad sometimes it's baaaaaad.

Since moving back to New York I have been on the lookout online for new sofas, new sofa designs and unique sofa layouts in the chance that I want to do something slightly creative. While looking through a myriad of ads and photos I couldn't help but notice that some of the new sofa designs that are claiming to be unique and amazing are quite actually the ugliest designs I've seen in the whole of today.

Ugly Sofa #1: Spiesser Sofa by Hannes Grebin
I can't tell what exactly is supposed to be happening here. It's almost like someone made a hodgepodge of a sofa and then threw the area rug over it and put place mats on the edges. Even down to the spindly legs this sofa gives me the creeps.




Ugly Sofa #2: Deer Valley Canyon by Rustic Best
I know that since I'm a city girl I can't get the gist of certain design styles, such as this one, where people feel inclined to mix horribly dated fabrics with leather. But someone, please, explain!




Ugly Sofa #3: On The Wall Sofa by Avaid Gil
I'd beg to differ that this sofa is actually off the wall design. The "sofa", which is made of texturized vinyl, rubber, iron, wood, foam is designed to. What better way to make your friends feel like fat-asses then to have them sit on this. 


Ugly Sofa #4- Catcus Sofa
Ok so this obviously isn't a designer sofa but it definitely caught my eye and had me slightly peaked for a little while. Yes we can see that it's obviously not the most comfy sofa in the world but 




Ugly Sofa #5-  Lava Sofa by Studio Vertijet


While I absolutely love the color of this sofa, that's just about the end of my excitement for this piece. The weird flowing, bulging blob down the center and the weird mat-like thingy spewing out of that was enough to put this sofa on the list. Too bad, it has so much potential!
