Definitely a piece worthy of conversation, the Disco Chair was commissioned by Wallpaper* Magazine and is made of electroluminescent wire. It doesn't look like it is made out of Lite-Brite all the time; the chair only transforms into a [neon rainbow](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/no-two-alike) when powered. The Disco Chair might just brighten up your home.
