Milan 2010: Dutch designer Roel-jan Elsinga has created an angry little felt-covered chair called Fury!
The bright red chair is described as a “fashion chair”.
The chair was presented at the HIDDEN HEROES exhibition in the Nhow Hotel at Via Tortona 35 in Milan last week.

Fury!
A fearless little chair, that barks but doesn’t bite. Fury! is a lively and visually noisy little fellow.
But he means well. At night he walks around your space, blowing off steam, cursing a bit.
But the cheeky little f**ker has a heart of gold and is actually really really sweet, and he loves being petted…
As with most people it’s an inside-outside thing.

oh yes , this is so pretty !!!
This is not just a pretty little thing, this is amazing ! Imagine what could be happening to your house having two of those around at night ….
supercute!!
Love it! So much personality. Want.
Cute. Yet…. for those of us who have cats inside our homes it’s a bit… ahmm…. ya’know what I mean, right?
Anyway, keep it up! With or without cats!
Nice…I like the special feature
How bout a green one?
@modular …
yes , know what you mean . Mine have adopted a Panton chair to sit pretty ( I am not even allowed on it ) but destroy the sofa instead ( as not designer you see)
but then again , cats are right snobs….
am sure it’ll soon be all the rage.
green one would look as if designer has an inspiration from durians
or cactus
a piece of furniture with a personality. i hate to admit it, i love it!
@sorn:
Actually cactus.
Nice.
Funny it’s red – cause that looks like it’s been done with pinking shears.
it’s a very dutch decorative-edged scissors chair
Seriously people, what’s so angry about this chair other than looking like a conventional chair with saw cut felt wrapping….
I could see these chairs totally brighten up your house… And your day!
a chair for the Tasmanian Devil (cartoon version). Love to see a bar full of these
it's not furious, it's cute. I'd consider it a fail of design, if the designer actually ment to create an angry chair.
