Jeroen Wesselink's Music Box Chair Has 11 Built-In Music Boxes

— June 19, 2011 — Art & Design
We get to enjoy many luxuries in the modern world, and the Music Box Chair by by Jeroen Wesselink embraces two of them: music and relaxation. This unique piece of furniture actually functions better as the former rather than the latter. You can see why from the photo above. The Music Box Chair has a lot of protruding details and a seatless surface.

The Music Box Chair has those knobs for a very specific and special reason. There are actually 11 music boxes built in to the chair, one of which appears to play the melody of 'What a Wonderful World.'

I like that the Music Box Chair is really simple-looking. As though one big toy, its minimal aesthetic makes you question the red knobs even more, which would certainly propel people to try them out.

1. Interactive Furniture - The Music Box Chair's built-in music boxes provide an interactive and engaging experience for users.
2. Multifunctional Design - The Music Box Chair demonstrates the potential for furniture to serve multiple purposes, combining relaxation and music.
3. Minimalism and Intrigue - The chair's minimal aesthetic and intriguing features highlight the value of simplicity and curiosity in design.
