I saw this chair in Seoul. I really want to buy it!!!! that was very comfortable and i think it has beutiful line!
@meme: given the timeframe, it’s doubtful this is a ‘rip off from nendo chair’.
it’s a pity that the chair is poorly detailed and plastic part is a rip off from nendo chair… right idea wrong execution…
you have to work on the lamp, that white light makes the reading really hard, really good idea though!
fantastic idea and nice design!!! i want it!!!
