Occasional furniture puts on a show

Accessory but indispensable, fun and multifunctional, colorful or made of noble materials, occasional furniture provides many services. Footstools and benches, tables, stools, small furniture with wheels, storage bins, bedside tables or ends of sofas ... together they form a very practical hybrid furniture. It is also an idea to afford a designer creation at a more reasonable price.

Occasional furniture is also an art object and exceptional craftsmanship, such as the Hopi pouf designed by Marta Bakowski for La Chance. The cushion, placed on a marble or solid wood base, is a tribute to the kachinas, ritual figures of the North American Indians
