Sweet Relief
By Christa TerryIn keeping with yesterday’s post, I thought I’d feature another interesting chair. The Relief Chair from Mickus Projects of Brooklyn “remasters the art of sculpting, using digital fabrication and solid, renewable materials” like natural wool felt and water-based adhesives.

The body of the chair is a layered assembly of medium-density wool felt sheets, adhered to each other and sleeved over an internal steel frame. The felt body and frame rest on break-formed satin-finish stainless steel legs. So how much does this kind of artful modernity cost? About $3,998, yikes!

Oy. It’s not THAT pretty.

You mean it’s not four thousand bucks worth of pretty, Nariya? I can’t dispute that!
