chairs >>

as you may be able to tell from the last few posts I am not really having a great time of it at the moment, selfish and boring to others I realise. so I am consciously thinking in a more positive way.
for some reason I have been reminded today of the dinning room of the house I grew up in. my father (a man who is and has always been very particular about every thing) spent money wisely. especially on furniture when I was a child. we had orange and blue eames chairs in the dining room. I am wondering whether this has had a lasting effect on me as I have always liked them, I know it is a kind of obvious like amongst the supposed 'design world'. 
a well designed 'whatever' can make a massive difference even the obvious use-ability benefits, I believe just the look of a product can make you feel better.

chairs >> space

it is sometimes the second thought that is the one that gets me interested, this post was.
I used to think so often that the first mark you make is the right one but I am moving way from that as I become hopefully more considered and thoughtful as the spring of youth is looking far away these days.

any way I had meant this post to be about the classroom of the future but got completely side tracked by chairs.

I have been thinking about chairs for a few days as my eldest son is well in to a serious project with chair as the key theme, (& have seen some good work from him).

but through the little research I have do I found this picture of chairs and yes I know it is shallow and I know I had nothing to do with its creation but I like it enough to make it the reason for this post.
