Can someone help me buy an ottoman from a French website?

In summary, the conversation is about a person looking to buy an ottoman from a French website. They are unsure if the item is for sale and if it can be shipped to the US. They have tried contacting the designer but have not received a response. The ottoman is made from Corian and was designed in 2007. The designer's work is not currently for sale. The conversation also mentions a Facebook page for the designer and another practical idea for transforming paintings into chairs.

Hi,

I'm trying to buy an ottoman from the following website.
http://www.studio-kosmodesign.com

The item description is at http://www.stephaneperruchon.fr/article-17569823.html

It looks pretty cool and has a very space saving design.

I can't figure out if they are selling it online, or ship to US, or the price of it. Anyone who understands French can help me to understand this?

Send a mail using the info in the contact page, but no response.

It's quite weird, I do not get it. Every item has someone posting "how to I buy it ?" to which he systematically answers "It's not for sale (yet ?)". He seems to me like a ... theoretical designer !

The table is going to be made from Corian (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corian). He says that there should be a prototype made by September with October being the latest. He says he will keep that section updated with prices etc.

The thing is though this was designed back in 2007 and judging from his responses in the comments his work is not for sale (as of 2008).

Here is his facebook page:
http://www.facebook.com/home.php#!/stephane.perruchon?ref=search&sid=507599490.1230593330..1
You could try messaging him through there for more information.

What a spiffy-cool thing, though. I know a couple of people who live in small spaces who could use something like that.

That does look cool.

This is also a practical idea: paintings that can be transformed into chairs (http://www.picchair.nl/)

It does look cheap and less comfortable than the bass table though.

That's awfully cool too, Monique.
