Hand-Felted Metal Folding Chairs by Tanya Aguiniga

The metal folding chair is a staple for small space living. How does one live without these hidden behind the sofa, or in that corner near the desk, I don’t know.

I love to see a recognisable design taken to new places. Regular metal folding chairs are transformed into something else entirely with colourful hand-wrought wool felt. Designer Tanya Aguiniga makes each to order.

Each chair is $1,200, so the process must be pretty laborious. Aguiniga has also done something similar to the iconic Eames DCM chairs.
