Rubber sealed edition of The Waste Land & Other Poems by T.S. Eliot | OCCULTER
“Each OCCULTER BLACK BOOK is a rubber-sealed flexible paperback with discreet titling. Before one can be read, the binding must be ripped by pulling the attached gunmetal-ended cord. Once open, frayed binding tape may be adhered to the inside of the cover for a clean edge or left in shreds as physical evidence of first contact. The copper-ended ripping cord may be used as a bookmark.”

“SKiN Sofa is designed by Jean Nouve a French architect. The sofa has a very simple but innovative design. SKiN adopts innovative technical ideas such as the supporting structure in tubular pretensioned steel which holds another structural element, the cover in double-sided leather with its self-modelling geometric incisions.”
A great looking innovative design like this is a work of art but potentially a pain in the rear. I would rather have a traditional leather sofa which wears in over time and is comfy than something over designed and unusable. “People ignore design that ignores people.”
