Surreal Sunday is the perfect day to redecorate with one of these awesome stone rugs made by Vienna-based designer Martina Schuhmann. All those smooth stones are actually soft felted wool, which means that they look like real stone, but are actually soft and comfy to walk on.

Each felt stone rugs is a one-of-a-kind creation. She makes felt stone cushions too! They’re all sold via Schuhumann’s flussdesign Etsy shop or available as a custom order via the flussdesign website.

Not even a geologist wants this in their home.

A basaltic lava flow has invaded a house, flowing in through the window to form a stony sofa. We’re not 100% sure whether the house was constructed around this or not, but it’s hard to believe the house would have survived it, and you can see that this flow has been there long enough for some plants to colonize it.
