Money does not bring happiness, but it can make life more beautiful in different ways, and happiness depends, sometimes on their number. Artist Johnny Swing recently gave a new meaning to the idea of having money. He started using coins of different sizes and values to create a collection of items, all made of coins.

The Nickel Couch will give the interior that is located a luxurious and glamorous look. It is made from approximately 7000 nickels, 35,000 welds and a substructure of stainless truss work utilizing 350 feet of stiffening rods. The Couch sits alone as sculpture or as an interactive work, inviting the viewer to sit or lounge while being surrounded by money.
