How does one have enough seating for friends, while actually have floor space to walk around? For many, modular furniture is a great answer, as it has a smaller footprint in one state, but can be expanded for additional seating in another. That's just what the Fabrizio Simonetti designed Sofista does. <a href="/web/20140810191800/http://www.gizmag.com/sofista-modular-sofa/33193/" class="readmore_link">Read More</a> </p> </div> </div> <div class="summary_item " data-article="33178"> <div class="summary_details"> <div class="clear_both"> <h2> <a href="/web/20140810191800/http://www.gizmag.com/wassily-fruit-bowl/33178/">Wassily fruit bowl keeps your fruit in suspense</a> </h2> <div class="summary_details_left"> <div>By <a href="/web/20140810191800/http://www.gizmag.com/author/dave-parrack/">Dave Parrack</a></div> <div class="date">July 30, 2014</div> </div> <div class="summary_details_right"> <div class="has_comments"><a href="/web/20140810191800/http://www.gizmag.com/wassily-fruit-bowl/33178/#comments">4 Comments</a></div> <div class="has_pictures"><a href="/web/20140810191800/http://www.gizmag.com/wassily-fruit-bowl/33178/pictures">6 Pictures</a></div> </div> </div> </div> <a class="noback hero_link" href="/web/20140810191800/http://www.gizmag.com/wassily-fruit-bowl/33178/"> <img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20140810191800im_/http://images.gizmag.com/hero/wassily-fruit-bowl.jpg" title="The Wassily fruit bowl features silicone elastic webbing designed to prolong the life of f..." alt="The Wassily fruit bowl features silicone elastic webbing designed to prolong the life of f..."/> </a> <div class="summary"> <p> There aren't many ways in which the design of the humble fruit bowl can be improved upon.
