Chairs within chairs are too unstable

So last night's episode of The Chicago Code was amazing and I can't even process today's episode of The Good Wife (I JUST HAVE SO MANY FEELINGS!) but I'm not here to talk about them. Instead, let me direct your attention to this:



This is "Inception Chair" by Vivian Chiu and if she hadn't named it that I would still want to own it because it's just so damn cool. I love the visual trickery that occurs when you look at it from certain perspectives - it really does look like it's continuing on into the distance.

Her other work on her website is really cool too and there are bigger photos of this piece if you want a better look (the above graphic is on Tumblr here).

Also:

"I can access your mind through your chair."

"Building a chair from memory is the easiest way to lose your grasp on what is real and what is a chair."

"Chairs feel real while we're in them. It's only once we wake up that we realise something was strange."


Inception becomes a nonsensical comedy about furniture if you substitute the word 'dream' for 'chair'.

I finally downloaded season one of The Good Wife, my partner really likes it so I thought I would give it a try cause he usually watches my shows with me!
I saw that chair yesterday, it's amazing. I love how people just think of things like that

The Good Wife is amazing, I hope you enjoy it! It is a bit slow in the beginning but it soon improves, becoming wonderfully complex.

I love the chair, it's stunningly clever.
