'let them sit cake'

for milan design week 2011, viennese brand kabiljo inc. present 'fat' and 'let them sit cake',

the pieces draw on the times of princess marie antoinette, reflecting the finest viennese food traditions
of ham and delectable pastries. the furniture pieces stand for abundance, growth, joy, prosperity, optimism
and sweetness in our times of uncertainty and economic crisis.
