The Limited Edition Cactus Chair by Deger Cengiz

— June 5, 2010 — Art & Design
The Cactus Chair by Deger Cengiz makes it look as though sitting could be a painful proposition. This limited-edition seat is an examination into how visuals effect experience. The thorny, round cactus underneath the clear chair is meant to elicit a negative emotional response from potential users.

Basically, the Cactus Chair by Deger Cengiz should make you feel slightly uncomfortable. Made of green tinted Plexiglass, a barrel cactus and river stones, only 13 of these Cactus Chairs are available for purchase--at the price of $3,000 each.
