The Murakami rocking chair truly rocks. Designed by Rochus Jacob, the chair comes attached with an OLED Lamp that draws it juice from the kinetic energy produced by rocking motion. The chair comes equipped with a battery pack and the lamp has an in-built sensor so that it doesn't light up in daylight. Brilliant isn't it?

The "Uncompleted Chair" hasn't been designed by a bunch of procrastinators as the lack of back support is intentional. Looks like designers Chia-Wei Lin and Jui-Lu Shih thought that storing umbrellas and other knick-knacks takes precedent over a boring chair back! A neat concept but I personally cannot imagine buying a chair that lacks a back!

If we look back to the 1970s beanbag chairs were very popular. The round accessory seating came in many colors including some bold ones for that time period. Those models featured a round design where a "nest" was made which created the seating nook. This retro idea is a more modern version called "AMPLOA". The first improvement is having a backrest allowing the person to sit more upright. AMPLOA can come with an ottoman and is available in many colors for €250 here.

Writing all the time on Furniture Fashion, it is not often that we come across round furniture arrangements compared to the more typical square or rectangular shapes. Offices and public spaces that are seeking round or circular spatial relationships in their seating needs may be drawn to this type of arrangement. This product is called "Kurve" and was designed by Niels Gammelgaard. The design inspiration for Kurve came from a garden complex in Barcelona, Spain called Park Guell. There a particular bench mimics the shape of a sea serpent. More information: here.

You are never too old for Mickey Mouse! No, I am not on the payroll of Walt Disney but simply love the adorable mouse to death. So imagine my excitement when I came across the Mickey Ribbon Stool, designed by nendo. The ribbon stool pays homage to world's most famous mouse (sorry Jerry) in its own inimitable way and is a result of the collaboration between Cappelini and the Walt signature adult lifestyle brand. This quirky stool is hard to resist since not only does it displays an acute sense of design but also keeps its eccentricity intact.

While the "Memory" Chair by renowned Japanese designer Tokujin Yoshioka may not be the most aesthetically designed chair, we still can't resist covering it. Debuting at the prestigious 2010 Milan Design Fair, the chair is already creating a buzz in the design continuum thanks to its material of choice. Made from recycled aluminum, this sustainable chair is able to alter its shape according to the weight or size of the user who has parked his/her derriere on it.
Says the designer:
"This chair might remind us of the beauty in nature with its ever-changing expressions, and also create the impression as if there is no presence of design."
