the bean bag grows up

Bean bags. ahhh, what a staple of middle school evenings. Paired with an orange slice soda and some microwave popcorn plopped in front of a Full House marathon on the TV... can't get much better than that. It appeared again in the dorms my first year of college... but not in a chic way, in a sad way. Since then, the bean bag has been on extended leave from my life, that is until my funky architect friends clued me in on whats new and hot in the bean bag world. From chairs to ottomans, bean bags are back in a very grown up way.

Fat Boys, available here, are the latest and greatest new bean technology. With multiple sizes and shapes, there's at least one style that will fit your home. Not to mention they've got guest designers so you can get your favorite Marimekko or Dwell Style print!


West Elm even has its own version, here, perfect for extra seating or just lounging around.



Tell me, are you ready to bring bean bags back into your home?
