Here’s a curveball: Many high-end products take care to hide their stitching. But these beanbag perches from the Gandia Blasco brand, flaunt it, in a nod to the red threading of baseball seams. The outdoor pieces, by Madrid-based Italian architect Teresa Sapey, were exhibited at Hábitat València. They expand upon Diabla’s Costuras collection ottomans, Base and Ball, with models built for two, cutely inspired by Sapey’s twins. Essentially doubled versions of the original shapes, XL Twin Base and XL Twin Ball each span 4 1⁄2 feet. Their foam forms, topped with polystyrene beads for extra squish, are wrapped in waterproof upholstery that unzips for removal. Some 32 fabrics are available, from the geometric Comedia del Arte to solid colors like plain white or blush pink with contrast stitching.
