Unlike most sofas, the Baia Island Sofa is meant to be placed in the center of a room, rather than up against a wall. It was designed by Milan-based Jacob Pringiers, and its unique shape allows people to site comfortably on all sides, facing any direction; it is far more versatile than the average couch. It comes in five rich colors, including red (pictured), orange, lime green cream and black. The upholstery is polyurethane and it comes with a removable eco-leather cover. The only downside of the sofa is that, even though it seats six, the six cannot necessarily easily converse with one another - but since this is true of most linear couch designs, it is not a problem that cannot be overcome. Price: $2,655
