Hardcore motorcycle riders looking to replicate the feeling of being on their bikes while at home are going to love the Biker chair. Jang Woo-seok has designed the Biker Chair to be the thinnest armchair around. Judging by its slim size and barely there armrests, this piece definitely has a shot at taking the title.
The Bike chair is all-black and is designed with curvy wooden armrests that resemble the handlebars of a motorcycle. Perhaps the biggest biker-themed addition to the chair is the footrest that resembles a pair of foot pegs. While many non-bikers may shy away from the Biker chair, I'm willing to bet that it could become a hit from the Harley and rice-rocket-riding communities. After all, everyone loves lounge chairs and sofas designed in the shape of cars.
