Philip Starck’s Ero |S| Swivel Chair

February 28, 2008 | Posted by Allison as Furniture at 9:58 am |

I love naked models, don’t you? And especially the ones that don’t really make that much sense, like advertizing for a plastic swivel chair. I can’t help it, I just find it incredibly amusing. It’s like the marketing folks are sitting in the meeting saying, “Yes, Philip. I understand it’s just another plastic swivel chair & you’re worried it won’t stand out in the crowd, but what it we put nude models in the marketing campaign? Yes, I thought you might be tempted.”

Either way, I have been somewhat compelled to buy one of these Ero |S| Swivel Chairs by designer Philip Starck. The egg-shaped wonder of a sitting device is only the more tempting. You can choose from either a swivel chair, a version with legs or an egg chair with wheels. I’m a mobile type person, so I think I’ll have to go with the egg on wheels.

Cost, $485-$700. I wonder if it’s more to get a naked model with yours?….

You know, I found myself actually laughing out loud at the picture. You are right it is quite amusing. I have to say I don’t really “get” these chairs. I mean, is it only the expense of the things that are making them popular because they are uuuuugggglly!!! To me they look like something that should only be in like a hair salon or something.
