The Fatties Chair is a Perfect Father's Day Sentiment
Andrew Robichaud — June 19, 2009 — Art & Design
Fathers love two things: Their lounge chairs and their neckties. Tracy Deramus is officially the greatest woman on the planet (in a male’s eyes) for creating the Fatties Chair.
This beautifully composed chair brings two male pleasantries (ties and loungers) together in a colorful and comfortable arrangement. This chair is a Father’s Day dream.
I would only assume that the downside to this revolutionary (yeah, I said it) invention is that eventually you’re going to want him to stand up and in all seriousness, I wouldn’t expect a response.
