Life Saver-Like Loungers

The Hello Lounge Chair Was Designed by Kylie Minogue

There are chairs fit for regular people like you and me, and then there are seats like the Hello Lounge Chair that are made for special people like singer Kylie Minogue.

Commissioned by the Danish Broadcast Cooperation, the Hello Lounge Chair was designed by Busk+Herzog. A candy-colored collection, these chairs actually remind me of Life Savers. According to designer Flemming Busk, "its design is round, open and happy--like a mouth calling out to people, asking them to come closer." With that being said, this seat seems to have the same magnetic quality as its designer.
