Teddy Bear Chair is poised to become a new design icon for the 21st century. With a foundation of modern design history and a sensitivity to contemporary cultural ethos the design speaks to people of all ages. With its subtexts of memory and security and each of our personal histories the chair balances flawless function and design content and is alive in our consciousness, both masculine and feminine and globally timeless. The piece has been likened to the Pop Art masterpiece “Rabbit” by Jeff Koons as well as Murakami’s art and its relatedness to anime, and yet is still sharply contemporary and refined. With all that, the chair is infinitely comfortable, at home in any environment and highly compatible with all choices of color and even patterned upholstery.
