it looks more like a bench than a sofa.

anyways, my only crit is that it looks like a miniature model of the scene. try tweaking the DOF effect to make it look larger.

I have to say I do like that bench design. From the horizontal slots with the connecting parts probably in the rear, which give a nice front seamless elegant design. The reverse curves I also find attractive.

Thank you for putting that ball in for size comparisons.. I actually don't take up too much of a chair (usually on purpose) - not that I would start to relax my back on that.. which I think one could on that chair assuming there was something backing / propping it up.

Though note - I do like the blocky think support and legs you picked for it. Nice choice. I like the color you picked and it's outsideness usefullness.

Picture wise I like the picture.

Again nice bench design. I think even if desired by someone with slight modifications you could see workable and pleasing to the eye variations for indoor use. :) Ie varied slot colors (white, stained wood clear to dark or with colors, metal) with differences in material for the supports.. (dark wood, light wood, black with maybe bare metal connectors, congrete shaped blocks etc)

*thumbs up*

Though no offense meant.. doesn't look like a sofa too me. But that might be a cultural - area background on my part.. ( partial chinese but North Western U.S. area background).

However thinking again.. on modifications.. I think with materials available a soft rubber or plastic with padding inside / almost tube like for the slots.. would make that bench extra comfy. :)

so hey.. definitely a sofa. ;)

As a final piece, the image is incredibly grainy. The writings on the wall, :rolleyes:

I think its also too simple, perhaps a cushion?

Its just a bit bland.
