Spun from Magis

Spun from Magis

Thomas Heatherwick has produced a startling twist on conventional furniture design with the Spun Chair. Made from a single profile rotated through 360 degrees the aptly named 'Spun' transforms the domestic seat into a beautifully rendered spinning top. When upright Spun is a sculptural vessel and it is only when it is lent on its side that the full possibilities of its form come to light. Spun allows its user to swivel in a circular rocking motion, including being able to rotate in a complete circle. It was launched in 2010.

You can snap this up for £323 from Nest.

Thanks to Claire over at Cheshire Mum for giving us the heads up on this one. If you've seen or own a chair that you think deserves to be featured, drop us an email to info@chairlover.co.uk

Spotted on Ebay: Monaco Corner Sofa

Just spotted this super deal over on eBay . £800 for the corner sofa, foot stool and storage box. In an immaculate condition (was reupholstered yesterday) corner sofa with matching footstool and storage pouffe for sale. It's on DfS for over £2000 all in ( it's the Monaco ), and is really really comfy but alas, doesn't fit in the odd shape rooms of our new house. Selling for £800 or offers. Yes, okay, it's my corner sofa! Blogger's prerogative right? :)

Condesa chair by Sentou Edition

Forget the set of drawers, it's the chair we're talking about here, specifically the Condesa chair by Sentou Edition. It's a take on the 'basket' chair common in the 1960s. Only this one has a structure in black powder coated solid steel with epoxy resin, while the seat is in plastic rope with UV protection. Which means it's good for in, out or in your conservatory. Three colour options, all selling for £305 . Via Retro to Go .
