Crinoline Chair by Patricia Urquiola

With the weather being so lovely lately here in SoCal, I’ve been thinking a lot about the outside, and also outdoor furniture. Check out this Crinoline Patio Chair designed by Patricia Urquiola for B&B Italia. I love how she’s taken the 70’s icon of the high back wicker arm chair, and given it a fresh interpretation. This one however is made of constructed polyethylene to withstand the rain and the sun. . How awesome would it be if there could be a hanging version too?! It’s a bit out of reach for my affordability ($4870) but perhaps it will inspire other outdoor furniture designs to be a bit more playful, and think outside of the box-y ness that I see so much of in the market right now… More info here.
