Wave-Inspired Deck Chairs

Equilibre Lounge Chair by Pierre Lescop is Designed for Downtime

— January 10, 2010 — Art & Design
French designer Pierre Lescop created this deckchair, the Equilibre. The design utilizes one fluid piece of material to create a relaxing and modern piece of furniture. The Equilibre would look right at home at a high-end luxury resort.

Implications - The featured images show pictures of some unusual sunbathers, including a mohawked half-bird woman who seems to be enjoying the chair very much. The Equilibre chairs come in different colors such as bright orange, yellow and blue. The chairs are made out of natural fiber composite and the wave position provides relaxation and absolute comfort. Sunbathing has never looked so comfy!

Pierre Lescop’s work is unique and interesting beyond the originality of the Equilibre chair.
