Fadi Sarieddine’s awesome new grass-covered sofa, cleverly dubbed The Mow Chair [4] aims to bring the great outdoors inside. Designed by Lebanese architect Fadi Sarieddine, this charming ‘living’ piece of furniture debuted at the Milan Design Fair [5] last week. The sleek, wooden chair provides a fresh take on the traditional bench: a layer of living, organic grass lines the top of the seat, providing a nice grassy cushion for your tired bum.
Sarieddine designed the bench for Local [6], a stylish line of furniture and gear that emphasizes practicality. The Mow Chair [7] fits right into this design aesthetic because it serves as both a bench and an indoor plant. Plus, just looking at that bright, green, organic grass is sure to make any viewer pause to reflect on nature.
The Mow Chair [4] is available in one, two or three-seat versions and is produced in Dubai.
