For those who care more about industrial design than hot celebrities and landscape imagery, the Please, Have A Seat poster series is just for them. It is comprised of [illustrated renditions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stedelijk-chair) of some of the most [iconic chair designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ff-chair-collection) in the world. Bringing them down to their most basic forms, the illustrations focus on the [clean lines and creative curves](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/after-series) that influenced their celebrated status today.

Designed by Andrea Locci, an art director based in Milan, Italy, the Please, Have A Seat poster series is a fun and vibrant project with the end goal of making "an illustrated/visual dictionary of the chair design world," as written on her Tumblr site. With a new poster released every week, her ambitious goal will be reached in no time.
