NakedModern: Art Nudes For Design Snobs

As well evidenced by all those "Furniture And Naked People" spreads we've posted about in the past, nothing quite compliments the sensuous curves of an Eames chair or the playful visual rhythms of a George Nelson marshmallow sofa than the sensuous curves and, uh, playful rhythms of a gorgeous naked model. It's an idea that's taken to its logical extreme at the beautifully designed NakedModern, a design showcase and artist portfolio site that takes its nudes as seriously as it does a shopping spree at Knoll or DWR: you'll find work from six different photographers that's at least as notable for the beauty of the models as it is for the stunning price tags of the furniture they're stretching across. But don't think it's too deadly serious; all those outtakes they've posted from the various photo shoots prove that even design snobs have a sense of humor too. (Just don't confuse any of the works of furniture art on display with anything from IKEA's inventory or the kind of seating arrangements you usually find in your typical Porn Valley production. We're pretty sure their sense of humor about these things only goes so far.)
