I assume you meant that in jest....
but Ringo Starr did design some cool, and expensive, modern furniture for R&R in the 70's.
This occasional table was featured at Wright, click link below:

the sofa looks like it ...
the sofa looks like it was Joseph Hoffmann but i do not think he worked in chrome and judging that video was made in 1965
i would say something that pace has whipped up or early day B&B my most humble guess,

I wasn't aware that Ringo designed furniture. Is this really true, or was his name simply on there for marketing purposes?
God, I love this song, this video, and The Beatles. Just like the Eameses, they really had something. There is a reason for their popularity.

As a young teen ager in 1964...
As a young teen ager in 1964 you have no idea how fantastic that they were they truly were the best part of the 1960's.
and my childhood as i know it , born in 1951 6 years after WW2 ended
music was so so kinda queer, the yellow rose of Texas and itty Bitty teeny binkin, Sadaka stuff and the old farts like como, clooney.
Sintra and of course Elvis and Franki Valley were great but the music was fair,at best, do wap be bop
I have seen my kids grow up singing all the music, from 25 years before they hit this earth, ours was dead, till one day in 1963 in the seventh grade
I heard I want to hold your hand, ticket to ride, Help,
twist and shout, the world changed and when i saw that egg chair and them strumming along with that modern furniture how cool is cool They were great in any language,
