There’s no reason to let your couch kick your butt into an unhealthy, sedentary lifestyle. Designed for Italian furniture manufacturer Campeggi, Tobias Fraenzel’s “Champ” lets you show your sofa who’s boss. This multi-faceted chair which made its debut at this year’s Milan Furniture Fair not only affords a comfy cushion to park your tired glutes, but also features a neat modern design that provides a discreet outlet for you to get your daily workout!
This is interesting sofa. Can sit and fit.
Thank you for sharing!!
