Valentine Glez Wolhers created the Ghost Chair with the intention of making a piece of furniture that can "exist in any environment." The polyester Ghost Chair is entirely see-through.
The Ghost Chair is available in different colors as well. However, the original transparent piece is most impressive. Each Ghost Chair is lightweight and completely different than the last, as Valentine Glez Wolhers uses a complicated (and secretive) creation process.
Implications - Youth consumers are eager to see new forms of design manifest. In part, this is the result of popular media, which has shaped their perception of the future. Companies should consider how they can create new designs which reflect the future and feel exciting because of their newness.
