    I found this really neat and unusual seat / stool the other day. It is 18" tall, 16" diameter, cylindrical, outer shell of Formica filled with dense foam, 1950's or 60's. There are two sides, one is the architectural blueprints of an old building, probably Italian, and the other side is its inside floor-plan. So cool!

    The problem is that I can't find *anything* similar online that could indicate who could have made/designed it! Piero Fornasetti obviously comes to mind, but I can't find anything of his to match it to. Does anyone have any advice? ANY possibilities they could point me towards? I've just GOT to find out who made this! Thanks for looking!
