Fleece Chairs

September 24th, 2008

I saw Tom Price his PP Blue Rope Meltdown Chair for the first time over a year ago when he presented it during the Salone del Mobile in Milan. Apparently he made more variations of the initial chair with different materials. The production technique is quite simple. You take a pile of some sort of plastic, then you press a very hot metal seat in it and you’re done. These ones are made with fleece clothing. Excellent!

All I think of now is the music video of Little Fluffy Clouds by The Orb.
