Because you're posting this to the generation who will forever rent. The landlords probably wouldn't be happy.

There's a quite famous sunken bed in the Beatles' movie HELP! It was in John's area: https://filmandfurniture.com/2016/09/beatles-help/

I can only imagine what a pain this would be to vacuum.

Just use couches facing each other if you want to dedicate space to talking to each other. But I don't think most people have this much room available anyway.

I used to have one. It's no more difficult than vacuuming stairs.

At the time when this was popular, they also had Fake Fur wallpapers. Surely looks and feels nice, but has to be replaced every couple of years because it's impossible to keep dirt and mold away.

I guess the Roomba could just go in circles in the middle.

Who are they and why is this not achievable today?

[–] [email protected] 12 points 8 months ago

Not handicap accessible, lawsuits

Could you do it to your house? Sure

This also takes a special foundation. Can't just add it to any home

They took your own generations ability to have silly architectural trends - by the banks and Realestate agencies pricing most out of the market, and by refusing to mass build new towns for cheap.

That reminds me of Kramer on Seinfeld and his wood paneling like Sweden.

So I have some family that lived in a gated community that used to be a resort for Golden Age Hollywood types. Their clubhouse/community building hadn't been updated much since then, and it had one of these.

100% certain that a) group sex happened here, and b) at least one person broke their ankle in this thing. 90% sure there was at least one time both happened at once.

Probably the person who broke their ankle did it in some wildly adventurous sexual position mid intercourse and kept going until it was complete like a champ.
