Though open source furniture is not at all a bad idea. I built a very location-specific wardrobe recently[1] that has a pretty unusual design, and would have loved to have a library of similar stuff somewhere that I could grab ideas and subassemblies from. In this case, all components except the custom-printed ones are straight from the hardware store, anyone who feels like it can build it, and it costs less and performs better (given the unusual location) than anything you can buy. It's exactly what I would want OSHW to be. I'll be happy to scan in and share my design sketch for it and the BOM if anyone is interested. It's technically GPL licensed because the rollers are derived from a GPL-licensed 3d printer extruder design, but I can't very easily distribute the resulting product.
