What purpose does that piece of furniture serve? Let's not pretend that you're going to sit in it. It's covered in clothes and other junk and, like your otherwise unused exercise bike, it's going to stay that way.
Birdie Picot and Matt Smith of Thing Industries have perfected a chair design for the purpose that it actually serves. They call it the Sacrificial Chair:
Like a lamb to the gods we give you this chair to sacrifice to your clothes. Designed to replace 'that chair' in your bedroom that is constantly covered in crap, this is specifically designed for that purpose. Feel good about your lazy habits.

At least, until the bed is covered in cats.
