apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

are these real things? they look like photoshop hacks, which is not that genius IMO

I'm not sure if I think this is clever or a crime...

Hello, son! Welcome to the least comfortable high chair ever....

The toilet looks about right, though. Eames chairs of all types are uncomfortable as chairs, but the armless fiberglass (now ABS) chair looks like an OK shitter.

Gross! I would NOT use a cute Eames chair to mod my toilet. A toilet should look like a toilet. Now it kinda looks like a handicapped toilet and draws more attention to it. Ew.

ha ha! gozer pyle - that was funny. yeah, i don't get the obsession with eames. they don't look all that comfortable - which is what should be the chair's highest function. most models remind me of what we used to have to suffer grade and high school in. do people get more worked up over their design or their label?

to take the industrial students' 'desecration' further, i'd like to see what they could craft with louis vuitton bags and uggs boots. maybe they could combine the two and make vuitti-mitts. hee hee!

The high chair looks super-uncomfortable and the toilet is hideous, imo. Better to have left the chairs alone!

This is just wrong...on so many levels.

Eames chairs are uncomfortable? Well, I'm sitting one now and am quite comfortable. Unless perhaps you are obese or have dwarfism, I can't imagine why someone would find them uncomfortable. For the average person, they always seem very well proportioned.

Yeah, I think they're Photoshop hacks....still trying to figure out how the kid's legs are dangling through a seat bottom.

To heather leaf - if you're going to criticize an object who's main function is comfort you should at least have had the good sense to actually try one out first. Eames chairs are perfectly comfortable unless you're really fat, or occasionally very tall.

Brian K.,
I don't think it's a Photoshop hack. If you look closely at the 2nd pic on this page: http://www.notcot.com/archives/2007/10/eames_hacking.php#more it looks like they cut an oval-shaped hole in the seat for the child's legs.

There are certain people who would tell you a broken lightbulb in the rectum was comfortable if it came from a name designer.

Anyway, so far we have the pro-Eames crowd qualifying their claims of comfortableness as not being true for the tall, midgets, and fat people. Anyone else?
