Seating may at first glance appear to all look the same. The most important function tends to be comfort whilst using it for the purpose it was designed for e.g. as a office chair, lounge or dining room chair. Style has in many cases been an afterthought. Where chairs do look great they typically have an obscene price tag.

In the late 60′s and 70′s bean bag chairs were designed. These were revolutionary at the time, consisting of large bean/ pellet-filled sacs which proved extremely comfortable to sit on. Initially popular among the so called ‘Mods’ in Britain during the bean bag’s conception their popularity declined gradually with time only to resurface once more in the mid 1990′s, revamped and far more expensive. Part of the high price bean bag chairs now command comes from their uniquely unbeatable comfort.
