Chairs as sculpture 1 03/12/10

I love the art of an interesting chair. Someday, when I'm independently wealthy and have a huge house with a pool and S-shaped hedges, I will have an entire wing dedicated to cool-looking chairs. This morning, while flipping through the pages of the Ikea site, I stumbled upon this specimen. Interesting, though it doesn't look too comfy. But like a great pair of shoes, comfort isn't what we're going for. It's just fun to look at. What do you think?
