Living Chair by Vladimir Tsesler and Sergei Voichenko
Living Chair by Vladimir Tsesler and Sergei Voichenko from Russian Art/Design Studio Tsesler&Voichenko.
This is for all the ladies in the house! I love both the sexy modern electric red and feminine pink version of this chair. Clearly inspired by the human form of a female and holding itself with only three skinny yet sexy legs, it’s surprisingly sturdy and functional. Even more than that, it’s a sleek and glamorous piece of art just by sitting there. Yes, the Chair is literally sitting there!

The Ro Ro Rocking Chair by Tomoko Azumi of T.N.A. Design Studio for Zilio Aldo & Cy
T.N.A. Design Studio is based in East London and led by Tomoko Azumi.
Tomoko on the Ro Ro Chair and the cooperation with Zilio Aldo & Cy:
It is a rocking chair made from steam bent beech. The front legs and rocking runners share the same curve, and the arm & backrest is formed from a single piece of solid timber.
Zilio Aloo & Cy is located near Udine, centre of Italian chair industry for years, has been supplying good quality wooden parts for Italian big players for more than 70 years. Since the recent shift of manufacturing to Eastern Europe and the far East, this local network of factories has been struggling to survive. I met a young successor of a factory, who is now trying to set up an own brand, then started a project to rescue their fine tradition of wood bending, which is brought to their area when it was a part of Austria.

Shortly after I installed Chair Blog’s Face Book Fanpage, a young lady asked my attention by posting various interesting new chairs on the face book fan page wall. That was Polly Wong.
I asked her whether she would like to publish here on Chair Blog. Polley answered to my request: “With Pleasure” and so the Lox Barstool is her first post here on Chair Blog. I’m looking forward to a long and fruitful cooperation an am happy to have Polley on board.
About Polley
Polley is a blogger herself at Polleys Mumblings (already from 2006) and at Pawl’s Coding.
Born in New York, and currently living and working in Taiwan. She studied Computer Science and graduated at the Ming Chuan University, Taiwan, Taoyuan. She works as a technology manager in the Taiwan Branch of a firm that drives the movement of open or partially open source software license, the Creative Commons. She has her share of designing and developing quite a number of websites and I believe her Nickname is PHP olley:-)
During the day she is the tech nerd girl. Next to her professional life, she secretly studies how to obtain “the eye of an artist,” by reading hundreds of art blog articles everyday. Interior Design has always been her passion. She’s considering to apply for a position at a Graduate school in the US or Europe to study Interior Design, while working for tuition. Her Dream is, sometime in the future, to be able to design for free for the poor and elderly people in need. Her background in design or art is meager. She claims her skill in writing is weak, not to mention her poor English. However from what i have seen, she has a keen eye for design and in addition is probably fluent in other languages that I’m not fluent in. Moreover, as she is currently based in Taiwan, Chairblog can now say that the sun never sets in it’s realm:-)
A warm welcome to Polley!
Update
And because Polley undoubtedly will get her own fans who will be fluent in other than the English language I’ve now brought back the auto translation plugin.
