Chunky Crawler Chairs

The Bulldozer Lounge Chair is Heavy Duty Yet Comfortable

— May 20, 2011 — Art & Design
Lounging around the house, outdoors, with a beer in hand is probably one of the most comforting fantasies a man can have; throw in this Bulldozer Lounge Chair and this fantasy can become a dream come true. Of course, the ladies can enjoy its super comfortable embrace as well.

Created by Mark Goetz and Efe Buluc, the Bulldozer Lounge Chair is clearly inspired by construction building crawlers. A heavy duty, industrial piece of furniture, this black and yellow lounge chair would surely be a lifetime addition to anyone's home. Especially when you consider how it is made; the chair is crafted from aluminium elements that have been fused well with neoprene upholstery.

Overall, the Bulldozer Lounge Chair would make the perfect outdoor seat.
