The chair is great. I think the lamp and reading glasses make it a bit gimmicky. The choice of materials and the core idea is excellent. Ideal.

I think had this mishmash of ideas been ‘processed’ into something more stylish/ marketable it wouldn’t have gotten half the attention it has and the wheel is probably the strongest idea of them all-reminds me of sitting in a wheelbarrow

I am surprised by the amount of conservatism desiplayed in these comments. Gaston says he only uses a chair to sit and relax in and therefore chairs like the one featured here have no use. A very narrow-minded view that does nothing to progress design or the debate about design.

I think that as far as i’m concern, anybody can create a chair like that. And i don’t see the use of it, because you use a chair to sit and relax, not to roll around the house with, i would’nt want that, eurk!

kajihoo, it sounds like you feel being a designer in general is an unproductive thing for someone to do with their life, why are you on a website that deals with design!

I also saw this up in Milan, and then hesitated. But what really impressed was that they printed their PR on a linen hankerchief. That I kept

Great stuff. The wheel DOES make sense. You see, with all the books stuffed into the chair, the thing is too heavy to lift. So you ROLL it. Plus, it saves a lot of space. Smart thinking.
Much better than some of the other so-called design that the BIG NAMES have been producing. Seen that table by Zaha Hadid anyone? Speaking of crap…what is that all about. Oh, but wait it’s Zaha so it must be brilliant.
And Kajihoo nees to get over himself real quick. Or take a pill. The RED one Kajihoo, the RED ONE…
