It is painfully uncomfortable and hideously ugly. The very idea of making a "chair that weighs 180 lbs and costs $12000 is ludicrous. Libeskind is - withough a doubt - the greatest charlatan that the architectural profession has ever produced. Have you seen the piano "design" for Schimmel? Apparently, Thorsell has been suckered for that too! I loved Tim’s comment:

I have sat on this chair. It is painfully uncomfortable and hideously ugly. The very idea of making a “chair that weighs 180 lbs and costs $12000 is ludicrous.

Museums don't want visitors loitering all day long anyway. i think this piece of design is perfectly legit.

His design certainly won't keep people lingering in the museum. Human bodies have curves, which this chair ignores. His design certainly won’t keep people lingering in the museum.
