And that happened 9 years ago, for the first time, trendy decor magazines show pictures of such things. So, sorry, not so innovative, now,. but nice, anyway, as other things on the market are.

He is not the first or the last person to use the process, but I like the idea and the result even if not necessarily functional.

"Now, I will torment you with this Tokujin Yoshioka Designer Torture Chair that will bleed your ass till you're pale!!" Kuramata's chair was painstaking as hell, but this is incomparable! I can't wait to sit on this thing. Guys, this is Revolutionary. Get it? You make something kinda flashy and blingin' and transparent with lots of reflection, and PEOPLE will PAY YOU!! ALOT! no matter how much pain is involved or waste or pollution or lack of design ethics. You can be the next star designer. so, this is a… fully functional torture chair, right?

Even the most art-design (bleaghh!) chairs are usable. On the other hand one could be clever and state the the user surface could be licked until smooth! THis could open the way for colouring and flavouring! B Dude,

We human beings actually are nothing special comparing to the other natural things in the world if you veiw things from an Earth system. So nothing could be bigger and more important than NATURE!

This is not aesthetically pleasing, gives me no emotional kick, and doesn't fulfill it's primary function: sitting. The verbiage is overly saccharine; It reminds me of Sarah Palin: vomiting words on the floor and hoping something sticks. I understand this is art furniture. Art furniture is not furniture, and to me this doesn't even qualify as art. The more I think about it the more I dislike it. Agreed.
