Hand Glider Chairs

The Super Sleek Tensile Sofa by Therese Glimskar

The design and fabric make the Tensile Sofa seem perfect for jumping off a cliff and gliding around the sky, but I guess sitting on it would be just as fun… my inner-child is so let down. Check out more on the Tensile Sofa by Therese Glimskar by following the links below.
