There is a category of object that earns its place not by disappearing into a room but by refusing to. The Attackle is one of them. Shaped like a balloon-animal dachshund — a nod, apparently, to the teckel, the Dutch word for the breed — it seats two adults on its back, holds up to outdoor conditions, and functions perfectly well as a hall bench, a terrace piece, or an entryway sculpture depending on where you put it. The polyethylene is water and dirt-repellent, lightweight enough to move easily, and assembled from seven pieces without tools. The Black and Rain versions are made entirely from recycled polyethylene. At $899, it is the rare outdoor piece that does something no teak sectional can: it makes people smile before they sit down.

  • Dimensions: 77″ L × 30″ W × 21.5″ H (195 × 77 × 55 cm)
  • Weight: 33 lbs / 15 kg
  • Capacity: seats 2 adults (max 175 kg / 386 lbs)
  • Material: polyethylene (Black + Rain versions: 100% recycled)
  • Use: indoor and outdoor
  • Assembly: light assembly required
  • Colors: White, Recycled Black, Rain
  • Price: $899
  • Made in the Netherlands
