If you didn't have the proper perspective or scale of the Desire Chair, you might be inclined to wonder if it's a woman's platform shoe. The flashy piece of furniture looks to have been modeled on one of those high heeled slippers that's stable without the stiletto.
Anyone who makes this association to Vasil Velchev's armchair will pick up on the sexiness that the designer hoped to communicate through this product. You might imagine the sort of woman who would wear such a shoe and it may rouse this idea of flirtation and allure. It certainly helps that the Desire Chair is finished in a shiny plastic material with a highly feminine hot pink color.
