Many sofas, especially the leather variety, are covered with dimples. I want my sofa range to have a segment of a lunar map embossed into the leather instead.
Naturally you can chose which particular part of the moon that you want, so that each sofa is unique. Self adhesive microdot versions of the Apollo landers can be peeled off and stuck down for curious visitors to inspect. Packets of rubber Selenites are also available for slipping down the sides and back of the Lunar Sofa.
My own choice would be green leather, although Google have been helpful enough to provide this link in an alternative colour.-- xenzag, Feb 09 2007 Lunar detail http://moon.google.com/Best viewed at highest magnification to reveal hidden detail. Ignore colour and think green. Now imagine this stretched over a sofa.

[GC] Yes - the earth's moon is THE MOON and an object of affection. Strange folk with strange tastes might elect for another moon, but it must have craters and not be strewn with puny meteorites, or have any irregulary shaped lakes filled with dubious, impenetrable liquids.-- xenzag, Feb 10 2007 [xenzag] I think rhino might be similar, but I'm not sure. Presumably, you could choose an area of moon surface to match whichever animal you were comfortable with (or on), rather than vice versa.-- MaxwellBuchanan, Feb 10 2007 Could also start a line of bean bag chairs, based on Jupiter's lava moon, Io.-- spiraliii, Feb 11 2007 How about re-engineering various solar bodies to resemble existing furniture? Easier to alter one moon than several million sofata.-- MaxwellBuchanan, Feb 11 2007 Can I get one with pillows shaped like the mooninites, Enignot and Err?-- Pac-man, Feb 11 2007 random, halfbakery
