Eero Aarnio Bubble Chair

The modern hanging Bubble Chair also impresses the user by the special accoustic. The Bubble swallows the sound and you feel isolated inside in a pleasant way, even when the bubble chair is placed in a crowded place.

Eero Aarnio was - and still is - one of the modern furniture pioneers in using plastics in industrial design. Plastic material set the designers free to create every shape and use every color they wanted. This gave birth to objects oscillating between function and fun - and always fascinating ones. Eero Aarnio had said “after I had made the Ball Chair I wanted to have the light inside it and so I had the idea of a transparent ball where light comes from all directions,” thus the hanging bubble chair.

Professional installation is recommended. It is straight foward - a large hook goes into beam in the ceiling or anchored if ceiling is cement.
