    SofaBOX is outdoor furniture that's safe, dry, and nearly indestructable

    sofabox.jpg

    Is this an extra long coffin? No! It's a SofaBOX— unlock the metal crate and open its latches to reveal a full-sized comfortable couch. It's a brand-new invention by Swiss designer John Hofgartner. No word on pricing, but sturdy metal boxes with cushions inside seem like a good way to make your backyard at once creepier and more comfortable.
