Bling, bling, bling... designed by Franceso Binfaré and owned by the likes of Madonna, Naomi Campbell and Kanye West, the Flap Sofa is upholstered in over 750 000 Swarovski crystals fixed onto a highly resistant Kevlar fabric. The sleek shape of the upholstered base has parts that tilt at various angles to become backs and rests for unhindered relaxation positions.
To catch a blinding glimpse of this decadent sofa, it will be ‘appearing' (we say that like it's a movie star or something) for 3 days only (this Saturday to Monday) at SPACE on James Street as part of a major Edra event featuring two of the biggest names in design, Humberto and Fernando Campana, as well as renowned architect and Edra director, Massimo Morrozzi. Check out the Campana website for a senses extravaganza.

About
FourThousand is a subcultural guide to Brisbane, published daily and fired by email weekly. It is compiled by an amorphous gaggle of Brisbane writers, stylists, designers and photographers who all like huddling under that big umbrella we like to call creativity. Without editorial independence FourThousand has nothing. All editorial you read is featured because it's worth it - not because it's paid for.
