Ever wonder what it's like to be a bee? Wandering through flower beds, rubbing your legs to pollinate the stigma of various plants? This Plush Bristle Sofa just might offer a convincing simulation. With giant padded "bristles" sticking up from the flat bed, anyone lying down would definitely be playing the bee role in a pollination scenario, minus the flying off to the hive part, of course.

Designed by a student at Bucks New University in the U.K., the bristling sofa is obviously a just sweet piece of concept-furniture pie, and probably not the best choice for any family rooms, but it sure looks fun to lie around in. There's even a slight practical benefit: When you want a pillow, just fold over some bristles. Sold! — Peter Pachal
