Rubber Band Chair by Tom Dixon

12-11-rubber-band-chair-1.jpg We had to single out our favorite item from Tom Dixon's ABC shop in its own post. The Rubber Band Chair features a simple wire frame (reminiscent of his Wire Series) wrapped in extra-large industrial rubber bands. The chair is remarkably comfortable with the perfect amount of bounce. The price was surprisingly not knock-your-socks-off high...

Lightweight and sleek, the Rubber Band Chair is priced at $350 at Shop by Tom Dixon inside ABC Carpet & Home. The chair is very attainable, especially for a top-notch European designer who is currently all the rage (and rightfully so).

I don't know if $350 is such a good price if the rubber bands age the way non-industrial rubber bands do, which is to say dry out and snap after a few years.
