The Gumball Armchair by Alberto Brogliato is Funky and Comfy
Meghan Young — January 27, 2014 — Art & Design
The Gumball Armchair is a pebble-like seating that would suit the home of 'The Flintstones' with ease. Of course, this is due in large part to the new color range that was introduced to spice up the original all-white Gumball Armchair design. Although it could be described as splattered with paint, the application and texture is much more organic-looking than that.
Designed by Alberto Brogliato for Plust, the Gumball Armchair is produced in different materials including a rigid lacquered one and special soft resin. In addition to these new colorways, there is also a special edition version filled with thousands of colored balls that come through the translucent surface. It is also available in a two-seater model.
