Bug / Janis Straupe

There aren’t many of us who would welcome an enormous bug into our homes, but the BUG armoire from Latvian designer Janis Straupe is a definite exception. The beautiful wooden cabinet takes the shape of a huge beetle that opens into a plethora of cubbies, drawers, and storage spaces. The magnificent scarab-shaped closet is a one-of-a-kind original that was inspired by an actual beetle the designer encountered while out on a walk. The bug’s rounded shell and elaborately shaped legs are recreated in the warm wood, making the piece of furniture an incredible work of nature-inspired art — via Dornob
