Yours truly

Had a seat!

The idea and definition of the Badsofa came to me during the numerous visits at the Solna Badlands. Dumped sofas are nothing unusual in abandoned lots but the number that ended up at the 'lands was exceptionally high. And then there were all these different styles, and the way kids and other arranged them. Different set up every time. And yes, the definition of a badsofa is liberal. Any misplaced easy chair goes too.
