The chair-egg

Many, starting to design their homes, often wonder how to create a unique, modern, stylish interior and not spend a lot of money on it? Nothing complicated. There is a very acceptable and very original solution - get a chair-egg.

The chair in the form of an egg

A chair in the shape of an egg is a thing from the category "new - well forgotten old". In the middle of the last century, a Danish designer (by the way, a woman) presented a suspension chair in the form of a truncated egg. Initially, such chairs were suspended from a tree or ceiling, and later appeared portable models on a special rack. Modern types of chair-eggs can be divided into several types, depending on the type of attachment and installation - hanging (swing), portable, fixed (rigidly fixed to the ceiling and floor), as well as the type of material of the cocoon itself - woven, plastic or fabric . Let's look at some of these original seats in some detail. And also provide some recommendations for the placement of the chair-eggs in the interior.

The chair-egg in the modern interior

A classic variant is a suspended wicker chair-egg. Material for its production can serve as a vine, bamboo fibers, raffia (fibers from the leaves of a certain type of palm), rattan (natural and artificial). The wicker chair-egg harmoniously fits into the interior in the style of country or Provence. Also, such chairs will be an ornament of the villa veranda, and a wicker chair-egg made of artificial rattan can be installed without any fear even on the lawn in front of the house. The fact that artificial rattan is not afraid of changes in temperature and moisture, that is, it will not decay or rot after it has been pouring rain, snow or under the rays of the scorching sun. You will only need to remove the soft parts of the chair (pillows) in time.

Moreover, such chairs can be both suspended and manufactured on a special stable basis. In this case, the chair-egg can, for example, be used as a comfortable deckchair for making solar or air baths. Another possible application of the hanging chair-eggs is to use it as a baby cot for a baby, especially if it is made of natural materials.

In modern interiors the chair-egg from more modern materials will look more naturally. For example, a special mood of fusion style will emphasize an egg-shaped chair made of plastic. The same plastic chair without unnecessary decorative elements will look good in the interior of the kitchen - a stylish detail, and besides not difficult to care for.

Textile versions of the chair-eggs (the cocoon itself is made of fabric, and the base must be made of strong materials - wood, plastic, metal) can be used as a chaise longue (portable model) or even as a child swing (hanging version). Have appeared on sale and armchairs in the form of eggs, completely made of metal. As a rule, these are portable models consisting of a strong and stable frame-base and own cocoon, made by the method of weaving of fine wire. To ensure that in such an armchair it would be possible to accommodate with maximum comfort, manufacturers complete such chairs with plug-in cushions in bright cases.

In conclusion, it should be said that the chairs in the form of eggs can have a variety of sizes - from small, for the comfort of one person; to significant - they can be used as a fairly spacious bed. In the latter case, it is necessary to pay attention to the reliability of the attachment or the base.
