Droops

Created by student designer Camilla Hounsell Halvorson, this wonderful chair design called Droops is showing at the Stockholm Furniture Fair next week.

I can’t help but think of those gorgeous pom-poms I used to make from strands of left over knitting yarn! I feel the urge to cut through the fabric strips, tie a large length of ribbon securely round the middle and pull tight to make a huge pom-pom - but then of course I wouldn’t have a chair!

I love the use of lengths of fabric in all the lovely shades of blues and whites. It’s bright and clean and just so easy to look at, a bit like a donut, it makes you feel good inside! Droops look a bit like a donut as well-round, soft, squidgy and very more-ish!

If it’s made from salvaged fabric it will appeal to me even more! Just think of all the wonderful colour combinations you could use to make a chair like this. You could have one virtually anywhere in your home-each made in different colours to suit the room.

I have to admit I like circles and Droops fit’s the bill perfectly. Circles have no harsh edges, so easy on the eye and can be incorporated with modern interior design effortlessly. Coordinate the circles with some striking plain eyelet curtains in a colour which has been inspired from the chair and you have a real feeling of cohesion and style in a room.
