Tomato Chair by Eero Aarnio

Tomato Chair by Eero Aarnio



















At first sight, the Tomato chair looks complicated, but the second look shows an intelligent combination of 3 circles with same diameter, two of them being armrests, one stretched to a comfortable back, and even a fourth half circle up side down giving the chair a consequent seat. The tomato is much more than a chair, it is a piece of sculpture.

Tomato Chair by Eero Aarnio















To quote Eero Aarnio: "A product idea can come about in many different ways and here is one of them. I realized that Pastil Chair floats and carries the person who sits in it in water but it is very rickety. If there were three items like two great armrests and the back of the chair would be stable, and this is how the idea of the Tomato chair was born. The name reflects its looks: looking at the chair from the front there are two round shapes i.e. two circles like in the word tOmatO."

Dharma Lounge by Palette Industry



















The Dharma Lounge is designed by Palette Industry, and is an interesting approach for a chair. The use of laser cutters in furniture design is starting to make these typographic efforts relatively easy to produce. The Lounge chair is cut to display the following saying: Stand, Forget, Breathe, Acknowledge & Observe. Want to purchase and put your own inspirational words in that dharma lounge design..??

Reo Lounge Chair

Comfortable Lamb Chairs

Strange Chair 2

What are you gonna say about this chair design ?? Is it cool, creepy, unique or something..., anyway this furniture is definitely one of the creepier pieces of furniture I’ve ever saw. By looking at this chair I don’t know what to do, to laugh, or to be terrified. ACtually the design look co comfy, but the additional design ( the lamb head ) is pretty scarry for me or for a children. anyway this is a great piece of art from designer.
