No, its horrible, very organic but looks like the sort of thing that is knocked out for office waiting rooms.

You are confusing the term "modern" for "contemporary"
Modern is a steak.
Contemporary is a steak, with ketchup.
If anyone can think of a better analogy, be my guest.

Hmmm. Here's the thing...what we now call "modern" was at one point both "modern" and "contemporary." Just because something is a "contemporary" design, does not mean that it is bad....nor does it mean that it cannot be "modern"

Exactly.
Contemporary has little meaning beyond the dictionary definition of the word: Something consistent with the present day; an object designed and/or made recently.
Modern, which at one time was another way of saying "contemporary," has survived as the overall label for design reflecting Modernism as a school and a style.
These are my words; I'd be interested to hear from experienced observers and participants in the history of twentieth-century design for confirmation, correction, and expansion of these definitions.

They discussedthis recently on NPR...
and what I came away with was that the term "modern" speaks to a specific time in history and gives things like "post modern(ism)" its context. Contemporary would refer to what we are trying to call "modern" today.
If this were science, then we would be held more accountable for the correct use of these two terms, but since it's not I think we all have a similar understanding/connotation for these two terms.

This is an intersting topic.
I wouldn't call this sofa "modern", either, it goes against the modernist orthodoxy-- it's got big, curvy child-bearing hips (it's visually heavy), those silver ball feet are blasphemy, and upholstery's too, too sentimental.
Eero Saarinen's architecture was was poo-pooed by the intelligentsia back in the '60's for similar crimes, yet we think of it as "Modern" today.
What's "modern"?
We can't define it, but we know it when we see it? That'll never do...

Could this not be, say, a consideration largely of semantics, all things considered? Nouns and adjectives & all that capital J type jazz ...
The couch appears rather modern and maybe Contemporary, but not necessarily Modern or contemporary.

But back to the question of how he made it. Probably some type of injection molding. And how do we know he was not a she?
