Shelter from the storm

Aren't we all looking for a little shelter from the storm? This extraordinary sofa - that looks so 'now' - is from a 1971 design by Danish designer Børge Mogensen.
Remember yesterday when I talked about investment pieces? Well, this is truly an investment piece with a price tag of $21,900 at the online Danish Design Store:
But here's an idea...take a picture to your local furniture upholsterer or high-fabric/design store. Many shops can build furniture and replicate your favorite design. Save even more money by purchasing the fabric yourself at a fabric outlet store. Odds are, you can get the same look for 1/10th of the price!
