Modern Furniture Designs
The Rocking Wheel Chair
The Rocking Wheel Chair is designer Mathias Kohler's modern interpretation of a rocking chair. I will let the designer explain: "The RW Chair is a concept and a modern interpretation of a rocking chair. The near circular form seen from the side is what makes the design so unique. It allows for the rocking motion without being an attachment, but instead flowing into the rest of the chair". The top part of the chair comes with a light attached to it and the power source of this light is produced by the rocking motion. Pretty cool. But what about arm rests?
