Well, you’ve got to know that most of anything designed by Verner Panton is undeniably “fun” as it is (semi-) functional. That’s a broad statement of mine, and maybe somebody disagrees, but for now, I’m sticking to it. Here’s what Hive Modern’s site has to say about it:

“From the Danish company that gave us the bean-bag, comes the “Panto-Pop” designed by Verner Panton. Originally designed for Visiona 2 at the 1970 Cologne Furniture Fair, very few examples were produced and it wasn’t until 1999 that Innovation Randers of Denmark put it into serial production.”

21″ h x 31″ DIA
Injection molded plastic.

I know, I’m sorry, it’s another slightly-more-than-you-can-afford thing, but I can’t help myself. Cast resin furniture is one of my weaknesses, and this chair is really so completely lovely. The chairs are cast sequentially in layers while on their side, which makes the color combinations different and unique…also, it has a stainless steel skeleton so you won’t break it.

Materials: Stainless Steel, Cast Resin.
Dimensions: 29″L x 24″W x 26″H
Availability: 8-12 weeks

This chair (and it’s brothers and sisters) are sure to become the collector’s new itch to scratch (mark my words). Sure, they’re pricy, but what do you expect?

“Each chair or stool is handmade, and the vegetable-dyed, environmentally-sensive, supple, hand-stitched leather will only improve with use and age.”

Low chair: Seat H 7.8″ x W 20.7″

This is a nice little wool-apholstered rocking chair that has a fiberglass spine and runner with molded and polyurethane foam. Available in two colors.

I was just at a baby shower, so I have babies on the brain, but I thought that this is a nice modern alternative to the rocking chair.

Available in 8 different colors.

This chair and “footrest” can be used indoors and out. Also, it’s extremely durable which is a very good thing.

This spectacular lounge chair is molded from a single piece of transparent plastic. Despite it’s appearance, the plastic is actually slightly flexible–making this chair beautiful and comfortable.

18″ w . 31″ d . 27″ h
seat height 12 “

Designed by Marc Newson, this chair from Magis is sure to turn heads. I mean, look at it. It’s made of polythylene with polyurethane seat and back cushions. You have your pick of red or blue woolen covers.

I’ve seen this chair around on a couple of different sites, and this particular site seems to have the best price. If you go with a felt/fabric instead of the leather, the price drops about $300…
