It's amazing how different people that the same thing and use it in different way.
Kim (and Jo), I love it when you pick one item and then show all the different backdrops! I find more inspiration somehow in the little details in each picture surrounding the item. It's as if I drop my preconceived ideas about, say, a book case, when the theme is about a chair! Very interesting.
One of my all time favorite chairs! Your picture selection is absolutely gorgeous and so inspiring! My favorite is the one by xojy, somehow, the vibrant touches of cherry red make the Bertoia chair the center of attention. Thank you!
Fun! I love them, but alas have no space at the moment. LOVE the idea of using them as dining chairs. xoxo
I think the Bertoia chair is one of the worst designs ever. It's totally unsittable (is that a word?). It is kinda cool as sculpture, though and you featured some really incredible rooms here. I'm going to check some of that out on flickr. Really love the turquoise bookcase/wall divider.
Otroligt vackra i så många olika miljöer!
Peggy, I think the Bertoia chair's comfort level is really dependent on the individual. I have several (including one at my desk), and find it extremely comfortable to sit in -- even for hours on end (literally!). Other folks, though, have the same experience you mention.
Can't go wrong with Bertoia chairs....Love these!!
ooh I'd love me a white diamond bertoia
So many different forms of beautiful. I love these chairs and it was fun to see all the different looks. Like having the same sweater but pairing them with different pants/skirts/shorts/shoes. Love.
I love them but with the cushions or your backside looks like a waffle when you stand up.
This is not helping my obsession with this chair...if only I could get my husband to be as devoted to them!
I think this for sure has to be my favorite Flickr find!
That chair always scared me, but to see all the different ways of using is very interesting. It can look so different depending on the setting. Still don't know if I will every purchase one, but great post.
Forgive my ignorance, but is it "bur-toy-a" or "burr-twa"? Anyone?
Wow! I see one of my own Bertoia chairs here! The apartment is not current, but there it is. Strangely, I had painted them black at the time and now they are slowly returning to their original white. I paid $75 for the pair!
I find the Diamond Chair (not the side chair) to be really comfortable. I'd have a whole herd of them if I could!
