Alley Lounge

Who knew? Back alleys can actually be quite cozy, thanks to L.A..'s "dump your furniture on the curb" culture. The most notorious discards are couches. They even have their own blog. They may look shabby, but they also offer the opportunity for impromptu gatherings. Drinking parties. Even romance. Cozy indeed.

I am always stunned at how ugly the couches and chairs are. Who bought these things, which must have been ugly even when they were brand spanking new?

If you go to mass-market, non-designer stores, that's often the only choice you get. Maybe their manufacturers think everyone wants to feel like they are back with grandma? Or they are grandmas?
