High End Papasan: Tropicalia Cocoon by Patricia Urqiuola

An expensive update of the Papasan? Patricia Urquiola's Tropicalia collection for Moroso features this hanging cocoon that looks like the perfect colorful alternative to a hammock...

Made from a structural steel cage wound with 10 colors of cord, the Tropicalia Cocoon really highlights the collections use of color and geometric weaving techniques! The Tropicalia Cocoon is available from HighBrowFurniture or Amazon for $8,614.

That is so beautiful and amazing but I don't think I could ever spend that much on a chair even if I was insanely rich.

I want it.
I'm afraid to look at the price.
But I want it so bad.

Love it. But I could also buy a car for that much!

I think it's gorgeous, but probably not actually comfortable in real life.

I love all of Patricia Urquiola's work. Unfortunately it's insanely expensive. Why can't she design some stuff for Ikea? Like Stella Mc Cartney did for H&M? That would make me happy.
