This levitating furniture creates magic

This furniture is fit to feature in a magic show. Design company Lago has managed to create the illusion that this sofa, chair and coffee table are all floating — and you'll want to believe, even if deep down you know it's just a trick.

The "magic" of course comes from using nearly invisible panes of glass as supports that lift these pieces about a foot off the ground. Plastic certainly seems like it would have been a safer option, especially given these will be supporting quite a bit of weight, but it also scratches easily which would ruin the illusion.

You can even get a dining room set and a bed so the illusion isn't limited to only your living room. Which means the next time you have a dinner party, even though you might feel awkward asking guests to bring a dish, you won't have reservations about charging admission given the magic show everyone in attendance will be enjoying.
