I've been missing a tropical lounge here in Sweden so I started a few years ago to build my own in a corner of my apartment. But the project has been taking long time. Now, it's functional but long way from finished.

Here's a few pictures.

I decided to build the sofa from scratch. As I'm not a carpenter, this was a new experience and really entertaining.

The fabric for the couch ready.

I bought some small shelves and painted polynesian patterns on those. Works pretty well for mugs.

By night...

From another view.

It's hard to find statues in Sweden so I decided to build this myself with help from friends, made in papier maché. But when we got finished, there weren't any spot left to place it.

So, unfortunately I got to place my little fellow in the cellar. Haha...
