The Molecular Chair by Designklein is comprised of six hexagonal frames.
This chair is the perfect thing for people who want something eye catching and different. It is available in multiple colors like yellow, red, green, blue and black.
Designklein is made up of two individuals named Sinisha and Sasha Klein.
Implications - The mass adoption of technology and the Internet has caused geek culture to bubble up to mainstream acceptance. Formerly "uncool" subject areas such as science, biology, physics and math are suddenly all the rage, and designers in every industry are capitalizing on this opportunity by creating products that channel these topics. Geometric furniture, wall art and interior decor are just some of the manifestations of this theme.
