ICFF Day One: 2008 Chair Project

051908icff_0574.jpg2008-ICFF-LA.jpg I've been sorting through the hundreds of photos taken during my first sojourn into the cavernous Javits Convention Center (heading back today for one last round before returning to LA) and I can't but help make this my first post from 2008 International Contemporary Furniture Fair for the sheer fun of it: the School of Visual Arts's MFA Designer As Author 2008 Chair Project...

 
 

It's hard to ignore a 20+ ft tall chair, but the most memorable and personal favourite amongst the showroom full of altered state seating shown at the 2008 Chair Project booth was this slightly perverted upskirt "Kleptomaniac" chair by Theresa Rollison shown below:

The 'klepto' was definitely one of the smarter ones. A lot of them seemed a bit too simplistic.

How's that a 'klepto'? More like a 'perv' peeping tom.
