heron chair

this heron chair by an australian designer named Charles Wilson is the first nice piece of furniture i've seen in about 4 months. yay. i mean it's not exactly a contemporily styled piece of furniture, the shape of the seat is pure 60's, and the apparent vinyl finish and colouring definitely has a 50's flair. that metal base which is almost utilitarian , but then it has that craning forward to support the seat, giving it a motive force thats balanced by the low long back.
it looks like it's crying out for a set of castors, so it can be used in some inner city loft office interior design firm
