Unikko Flakes Chair

2007_04_06_unikko.jpgThe Unikko Flakes Chair uses Piiroinen's custom-printing technology to bring some high 70's style to its lightweight fiberglass-and-steel stacking chair.

A bouquet of Marimekko's yellow and lime Unikko poppies framing a dining table would makes a bold and cheerful statement -- and it's one that renders elaborate room decor and place settings superfluous. If you keep it bold you can keep it simple.

Flakes was designed for conference rooms, so Piiroinen recommends the upholstered version for prolonged sitting (longer than 30 minutes). But the upholstered version can't be printed...so we recommend cushions. Matching Unikko fabric can be found here.

 
 

$498 at Anthropologie.

Oh yeah, I'll just go pick up six of those and have my unicorn carry them home. No problem.

It's a great concept since I am really not sure what could go with a 50's formica table, but why $498 for one chair?
