NakedDogDesign – Lsd Dining Chair by Jed Davis

Naked Dog Design

The reason I originally clipped this account info from twitter account @NakedDogDesign (Jed Davis) [account inactive in the meantime] is the guy’s background image above: A chair design I don’t know.

Update: Mystery solved! (October 15, 2009)


This is the LsD Dining chair by Jed Davis
According to Alicita Rodriquez of 3 Rings NakedDogDesign belongs to Jed Davis, son of a former president of Harley Davidson and former vice president of the De Lorean Car company. Jed has a Coroflot portfolio where he coins this chair the LsD Chair.

Thank You Alicita!

The Proof of the Cake is in the Chair

Cakes for Design Museum's 20th birthday

I found this photo of the Cakes for Design Museum’s 20th birthday in auralab’s Flickr: Photostream. Now I need to know which chair this is.

Can you help me identify this chromed Steel Mystery Easy Chair? Update: Mystery Solved

One of my readers asked me to help her identify this mystery chair a couple of which she’s owned for over 30 years and sent me these photo’s.

Can you help identify these chairs?

I’m giving you details of these photo’s so that you can see it is not a swivel chair and has a peculiar nut and bold connection of the legs with the central rod.

Also the way the canvas or leather seating is connected with the legs is typical and nifty.

I like the design and have a feeling they are really comfy to lounge in.

Update October 20, 2010

Oops! I should have updated this post much earlier.

The question was posed and solved within 24 hours by Brian fireman. Thanks Brian!

This is the Steel edition of the Falcon Chair by Sigurd Ressell.

Unfortunately I’ve lost Brian’s original comment in a server transition…

Where to find the Mystery Solar System Chairs?

Just as Knoll delivered chairs for a feature film, a reader of mine, a USA based producer of feature films, has asked my assistance to source the designer and/or manufacturer of this Solar System Chair.

Some research on this design has learned thus far:

Drinksuff had a couple for sale for US $ 99.-, but they are sold out now. I have pinched their photos to help us find the source.

The Solar System Chair is crafted from stainless steel and has chromed steel legs that will charm any room! The seating and arm rests are filled with a soft foam and finished with a synthetic velvet for superb style and ambience!

It may look uncomfortable but trust us, this stool has class, style and is so unique to sit on you won’t want to get up!

Dimensions:
H 950mm
W 880mm
D 800mm

Flatrock mentioned it

Zedomax mentioned it;

TechChee mentioned it
Chair Du Jour has even painted it!
Many more sites including Gizmodo mentioned it, but most refer back to Drinkstuff

I would appreciate any help to find the source of this mystery chair or where to locate it.
