Odd Furniture Patents: The Weirdest Designs You’ve Never Seen

Furniture design can get pretty quirky, and some inventions out there are downright strange. Over the years, inventors have patented some truly weird and wonderful furniture pieces—most of which never quite made it to our homes, but they're still fun to explore.

For example, there’s a patented "waking bed" designed to physically shake you out of your slumber—ideal for the heaviest of sleepers. Or how about a chair designed to move ever so slightly to promote better posture by preventing people from sitting still for too long? While practical in theory, these designs are far from what we consider everyday furniture.

One of the oddest patents ever filed is for a dining table that doubles as a pool table—perfect for those who like to entertain, but perhaps a bit too unconventional for the average dinner party. Another unusual design is the combination sofa and refrigerator—because why get up for a snack when your favorite soda can be stored in the armrest?

While many of these patents never went mainstream, they’re fascinating examples of how designers continue to push boundaries and think outside the box. Who knows? Maybe some of these quirky designs will one day find their place in your home.
