It’s good that the Robo Chair takes after a robot, because it’s so disjointed looking that if it were named after a human or animal, I would feel bad for it! Painful, is the word that comes to mind.
Designed by Luca Nichetto, I’m sure the Robo Chair didn’t intend to look so disjointed. Or perhaps it did considering it’s Ikea-like setup procedure. Created for the Swedish manufacturer OFFECCT, the Robo Chair is a simple yet unique seating option.
