6 Must (and wish!) Have Chairs

Ladies and Gentlemen (like if there is any...lol), I present to you the six most favorite of mine, 
Designers' chairs! I'm quite certain that most of them are out of our price range, so we will have 
to enjoy pictures for now! Let's roll...

Barcelona Chair

An icon of modernism.
Designed by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe and Lilly Reich in 1929 and was originally intended
for the King and Queen of Spain. It is still designed and manufactured according to his 
specifications.

Designed by Philippe Starck, who is mixing the antique style with contemporary
materials and this makes it one of the most versatile chairs on the market.
