The Ghost Chair is an ethereal, other worldly looking chair not because of it's shape, but because it seems to have two shapes. DRIFT, an ultra cool design studio, is making a series of chairs using the three dimensions captured within the design of the chair. It provides for the existence of a chair that isn't quite there.
Implications - Modern interior design favors minimalism, but many consumers are searching for timeless furniture pieces that double as art. This transparent chair uses tricky textures to create a surreal illusion of a second chair, an aesthetically pleasing feature that gives this chair a leg up in the crowded furniture market.
