The 'Frame Chair' is Like a Framed Painting That You Can Sit On
Laura McQuarrie — October 22, 2013 — Art & Design
If you were to stand in front of Slokoski's 'Frame Chair' and look at it straight on, the chair seems to look more like a framed painting than a piece of furniture.
In order to create the illusion of a realistic painting, the furniture piece uses incredibly rich textures like velvet on its interior. Although the chair seems like it might be a little cumbersome to move around, Slokoski's design was made for mobility. The Frame Chair sits on heavy-duty caster wheels, which are capable of braking so that the chair's position can easily be shifted.
The visually-striking frame chair comes in several different finishes as well as larger options to seat more than one person at once.
