Looking for the coolest of the cool?
Suspended from the ceiling, this chair is simply out of sight, thanks in large part to its transparent acrylic sphere that gives it its name. The Hanging Bubble chair allows for defying gravity, and stodgy tradition, in one magical swoop. As you are suspended from the ceiling you are enveloped in a non-claustrophobic hanging bubble that can spin, rock, swing, or orbit as you see fit.
Designer Eero Aarnio was inspired by dome shaped skylights and asked the manufacturer if he could blow a bigger bubble. This transparent, open sided, and surprisingly comforting bubble enables an enjoyment of 'sitting' along the same lines as the old front porch swing - yet with a very metro twist. Eero added a steel ring for strength and installed a comfortable set of cushions so you can laze the day away in swinging, swirling comfort.
Original versions of this anti-establishment chair can cost upwards of a ticket to space but smart shoppers with a more earthly budget can get the Hanging Bubble chair right here. This is not the Eero Aarnio Bubble Chair, but it is very much like it.
With this chair, 'hanging out' with friends can be taken to a whole new level.
