The geekiest chair you'll ever see

Do you want to see the geekiest chair ever? Well, look no further, because the person who brought us the binary low table and other assortments of geeky furniture is now giving us another chair: the Binary Chair 02.

Flux Chair: incredible, portable, foldable

Hauling around chairs is somewhat of a pain. Carrying them to the beach or to an outdoor event is more annoying than it should be.

Furniture of the Future: A Visibly Invisible Chair

I’m not going to claim how this could possibly work, but a fellow by the name Ben Alun-Jones has created a chair that defies both eye and imagination, which your derriere will be sure to enjoy. From a distance there is a blending of materials, which wouldn’t normally catch the eye, but up close, an object appears, revealing something not seen before. The Affinity chair was simply an attempt to be creative with art and furniture, but it has turned into an art project of the future. The creator explains it far better than I can: Born out of an attempt at the impossible, the Affinity chair explores our relationship…

There are some things that are just too cool not to mention, no matter how weird it might seem. This is that moment, but what is amazing is that it involves carpet. Yes. Carpet. It is that amazing. Transforming furniture seems to be all the rage lately, so it makes sense that transforming carpet is next on the list, and even though it is hard for us to imagine how this would work in our own homes, it looks amazing and useful. The concept, seemingly, isn’t all that difficult. You have plenty of carpet in your house, right? It sits on your floor, it provides a nice space to walk on, and it provides some cushion…

And You Thought Your Furniture Was Cool? Think Again

And You Thought Your Furniture Was Cool? Think Again

Furniture these days is getting, well, boring. It’s the same stuff everywhere — the same look, the same feel, the same basic design rules. Where’s the fun in that? What does that express about you? Imagine, if you will, furniture that can morph into completely new styles and designs. Imagine being able to change a simple sofa into something far more exotic than you’ve ever seen before. The Confluences sofa may one day enable all this.
