At all times, mankind has dreamed of overcoming the Earth's gravity, breaking away from its surface and taking off. People invented parachutes and wings, hot air balloons and hang gliders, airships and zeppelins, planes and helicopters… Everything that could make that ancient dream of mankind come true was in great demand and real popular love.
Hanging armchair and its "relatives"
All kinds of hammocks, swings, rocking chairs, benches on chains may well consider themselves the ancestors and brothers of the hanging chair. Their main common feature is the feeling of peace, relaxation and soaring that they give to their owners. For a long time already such furniture accompanies people in everyday life and on vacation.
"Pedigree" hanging chair
All existing models of hanging chairs go back to two main prototypes:
- Invented by Danish designer Nanna Ditzel, the Hanging Chair, a wicker Egg (egg) chair created in 1957.
- The famous bubble chair Bubble Chair (soap bubble) from the young Finnish designer Eero Aarnio, designed in 1968
The first model gave rise to many variations, but the second is almost completely preserved in its original form to this day.
"Breeds" of chairs
All the abundance of this unusual furniture can be divided into two groups, given the way the cocoon is attached to the base:
- Top mount. With the help of powerful brackets, the suspension chair is attached to the beam, ceiling plate, crossbar. And then to the tree in the garden. Chains, strong ropes, special harnesses can be used as slings.
- Mounting to the frame. A frame or frame with a suspended chair is installed on the floor.
Hanging chair for adults and children
Winter evening, snow outside the window, a warm blanket, a good book and a cup of hot chocolate… You just want to sit in a cozy swaying chair and spend a wonderful evening alone. Or like this: a summer veranda filled with bird noise and aromas of herbs, a glass of cold juice in your hand, and a hanging wicker chair located in the tempting shade of a large tree … And how the children fell in love with such an armchair! After all, it can "turn" into a balloon basket, in which Mr. Fogg and his faithful friend Passepartout will fly towards their dream! It can "reincarnate" in the captain's cabin of the "Nautilus", hurrying through the depths of the sea to the goal. And even in a soap bubble with a bug inside or in an apple with a curious worm. Children's imagination is boundless, and hardly any other furniture can compete in the possibilities of this kind withhanging chair!
Hanging armchair in a modern interior
