Hot or Not? Arflex Ball Chair

The Arflex Ball Chair by Carlo Colombo is made durable polyurethane to make it suitable indoors and out, and has a flexible seat that molds to the body. Durability aside, is this chair hot or not? Survey after the jump...

I see it as more of an outdoor chair than a living room chair, but I would love it on my terrace!

Honestly, I don't really want to see an impression of my ass.

Looks like something the Jetsons would own.

It would make a great gaming chair.

@clampers: Win!

This is hideous. It's hard to get an idea of the dimensions of the chair, but it looks like it would be uncomfortable to sit in (due to the low back and super-curved seat). I don't need a chair that encourages me to hunch over more than I already do.

Looks like a fancy bean bag.

Ok, the not option made me specify that it would be ok in a child's room. I protest.
