Here’s a quiz for everyone. What famous chair does this remind you of?
This is Spectrum’s Metropolis Chair. It was designed in 2005 by Roderick Vos. Its principle use is in the commercial marketplace. Frankly, it doesn’t look so comfortable. So in a waiting room, where you hope you’re not waiting too long, it would look great.
I hope to have more information on my fascination with comfort tomorrow. Stay tuned.

Uh….Marcel Breuer’s ‘Breuer Chair”? (I don’t know what it’s called. It’s that tubing with leather thing you don’t like). :^)
Believe it or not, it’s a really comfortable chair!
So what do I know?
I know that guys love the Breuer Chairs. But it’s not comfortable for girls. Maybe because we’re smaller.
I think boys are in love with its butchness. So in love that they convince themselves that their butts aren’t sliding out the back.
It only works if you sit straight up in it. No slouching or potato-lounging.
Why do I know all this? Because Misterarthur bought two of them before we started dating. Man chairs.
