A stuffed chair affair

Patchwork armchair

I have an odd obsession with chairs and given the chance our house would be full of them. The cyclist is probably happy that I have not acted on that impulse. I pretty sure when I first laid my eyes on The Stamford chair from Squint Limited my first words were ‘Oh my!’. It’s amazing and such an eclectic mix of colours and fabrics. It has me wondering if I can put my fabric scraps box to good use to recover our sofa, now there’s a thought.

Colour swatch chair

If you’d prefer a functional chair that is also a colour resource then how about his one from the wonderful folks at Spoonflower. This one sits in their office and is made up of the colour charts they use when calibrating their digital textile printers. A yard of this fabric, which is available to buy, equates to 3600 colour chips and their corresponding RGB codes, well if that’s not bliss for the colour nerd in me then I don’t know what is. Needless to say my yard has already been ordered – I’m thinking of putting it on the wall. The best part is this is also available as an Adobe Swatch file to use in Illustrator or Photoshop.

And what about this gorgeous Pushkar Chair from Couch, doesn’t this just make you smile? I really want to run my hands over it as it looks so tactile and I’m digging the pink legs.

    They are beautiful, but they would make me crazy in my home. Too busy! My brain is already going a million miles an hour. I need visual peace.
