Chaise Étiquette

If you've been reading this here That's Right blog for the last 8 plus years it's probably pretty clear by now that yes, I've got a little chair fetish. Well, here's another brilliant specimen from the creative folks over at La Firme from Montréal.

Vous savez que vous en voulez un ...

This Chair Rocks!

Now this a hybrid!

Designed by Paul Kweton of Houston for Barkitecture, the "merge" & "morph" manipulation of the old school rocking chair and doghouse generates a hybrid "furniture" that combines the idea of shelter and body relaxation and pushes its functionality to a different, more personal level.


Yeah, this is on my official wish list.

Typo Chair

Dig the Typo Chair from designer Michael Bom. The abstract typographic Typo Chair is made from recycled billboards of Finnish Birch multiplex. Nice.

The Flight Chair

The Flight Chair design concept by Matthew Weatherly would look perfect in my house or just about any chiropractor's office.

OK, getting back down to Earth after what turned into Space Week here at That's Right...

ReThinking

Here's a smart and affordable Mother's Day gift. These reusable bags from Flip & Tumble are perfect - designed for those who only seem to remember our reusable bags the moment we need them. A stretchy pouch makes it a cinch to go from a full size bag to small ball in seconds flat.

Get more info and dig the video demo over at Flip & Tumble.

And I'm totally digging this chair from Carlos Motta made of reclaimed wood available from 1stDibs.

Thanks to the smart folks at Design Milk.

Beyond Eames

Just when you thought you'd seen it all as far as wooden slats and furniture, along comes designer George Mahoney at Solv.

Very nice.

Hip Options for the Armchair Traveler

I'm always a sucker for a hip chair like the Bibliochaise I featured back in August.

The above shot is another variation, the Bookinist, designed by Nils Holger Moormann complete with a wheel to move around and take advantage of the right light. Go to the site and you can check out the smart hidden compartments under the armrest.

There's something exciting and mysterious about the Time Machine/Library look of these creations that, for me any way, seem to reinforce and enhance the notion of escapism that comes with reading a good book.


This chair is an in-progress shot from industrious That's Right reader and teacher Shaun who just completed his very own Bibliochaise for his classroom. You can view the finished project and then some over here.

Thanks for sharing Shaun.

La Bibliochaise

Man, I really, really want these chairs.

La Bibliochaise comes veneered in oak tinted wengé or black, with a wax finish and leather cushions with removable covers in a wide range of colours.

Holds 5 metres, or about 16 feet of books.

Have a great weekend!
