Alternative furniture ideas

One area of life where there seems to be a fair amount of uniformity is in home furnishings. It's not an area where people really try and show off the quirkier side to their personality. I can understand this, because I reckon some of the wackier things out there could soon get a bit tiring to look at. You could of course spend a bit (well... tons) of cash and import stuff from Mexico for that South American look - although like I say, expensive. You could also try your hand at making your own stuff, but cabinet making is rightly called a profession, not really something us mere mortals can dabble in of a weekend. I mean, it's hard enough trying to get a flatpack kit together without a barrage of consternated, ahem, *phrases*.

Anyway, this little meditation on alt-furniture got me thinking - what would your card-carrying, black-attired, pale Goth have as furniture?

A quick look around the internet and I found the answer in this marvellous Gothic chair. Nosferatu himself would be proud to own one of these beauties, i reckon!
