Chairs, Chair Design and Chair Designers
I’ve seen the interesting Lost in Sofa by Japan based Daisuko Motogo making its round in interior design blogs. I also would like to congratulate Daisuko with her starting an independent studio as of 2010. She has a nice website as well. In this chair / sofa you can “lose” your things on purpose:-)

Came across this simple but elegant bench by Peter Czuk Woodworking Studio.
Rocking and swiveling stool Monarchy by Greece based Yiannis Ghikas for Belgian based Feld.

If you think what you see is a chair, think again. It’s actually a Chair Ring! Yes, the kind of a ring you wear on your finger. I’m sure though, it would look equally as interesting if it was big enough to sit on. The Hand Engraved Chair Ring pictured above is by Kent Perdue
Ken:
“I like to use my Chair Ring to experiment with different ideas I have. This one was very exciting to see come alive. I made a chair ring about twice as tall as normal and engraved a brass plate that I then attached to it’s back. The chair was painted white and sanded back to give it an antique distressed look.”
About the designer:
Ken Perdue received a BFA in Crafts and Material Studies with a focus in woodworking and furniture design from Virginia Commonwealth University in 2009. He is interested in making furniture, jewelry and other sculptural forms using a wide variety of techniques and materials.

As I started this blog with a puzzle chair, I’ll always be on the lookout for more of those. Here is an outdoor puzzle chail by Paris based Ego, three brothers, Jean, Yvan and Nicolas Sommereux, who design and create mainly outdoor furniture.
