Design Post 2007: fatboy
by Harry / January 29, 2007


Big pillow maker fatboy has moved beyond cushions and is making quilted foam cubes, a rocking chair and an oversized hammock.

I LOVE the name and the original cushions are fun, but these cubes and hammocks don't seem quite 'enough' somehow. Maybe they have to be seen and experienced to be appreciated?

Perhaps it's just me, but I think these foam filled items are bizarrely overrated. Ever since the first Fatboy (kudos for a great name), I simply don't get the growing interest.

It's just the new millennium version of the bean bag chair. Albeit I like the dog cushions, but these new items, the rocker, hammock, etc. seem... well...frankly, cheap and ugly.
