    I've seen a few nautical themed aquarium rooms in my time, but none seem complete now without Maximo Riera's Octopus chair. A standout from his 'animal' series of furniture, the foam Octopus chair required a team of 30 and a milling machine to manufacture. One can only assume it will cost an arm and a limb to buy it :) but who cares? That is one cool chair.

    That is amazing! I think I need to find room for one immediately... okay, maybe not. But it's still awesome none the less.
