Sexy Designer Furniture (and models)
Many of us have probably seen these classics – the Egg Chair and the Series 7 Ant (thanks Mauro) Chair by Arne Jacobsen – quite a few times already. But does your designer chair look this sexy? I just love how the model’s thighs almost looks like it’s a natural extension of the Egg’s silhouette, and how the Ant Chair really seemed like a natural piece of clothing on the model. I guess the photographer Corey Weiner has really delivered to the brief given: “We want a model wearing nothing but the chair.”
That is really quite exceptionally lame and derivative. The original series 7 chair had exactly that layout in a well-known photo of a famous starlet, BACK IN THE 60s!
WAKE UP MAN! this is the series 7 chair! no th ant chair
P. S. un saluto a tutti gli italiani e i designers…. specialmente qulli della sede di pomezia… semo troppo forti
Oops my mistake – edited! (How did I make that slip…)
hey mstar:
Yes, that one dark shot was certainly influenced by that ad from the 60s. But, to label it “lame and derivative” just makes you sound like a simplistic ickday (speak Pig Latin?). New ideas are executed and re-executed all the time in the creative world.
When is using women’s bodies to sell shit (whether it be beer or, in this case, designer furniture) going to be realized for the tired cliche that it is?
The Egg chair shot is cracking. I’d have tried harder to make it look like a genuine house backdrop – too obvious it’s in a photographic studio.
