Eero Aarnio Inspired Hanging Bubble Chair

The Hanging Bubble Chair , was designed by using one of the most simple geometric forms - the ball. Cutting of a part and fixing it at one point Eero Aarnio comes to a remarkable result - a completely unconventional shaped chair, original idea coming from the Ball chair, the hanging ball chair is fixed to the ceiling via a chain.

A Hanging Bubble Chair is a "room within a room" with a cozy and calm athmosphere, protecting outside noises and giving a private space for relaxing or having a phonecall, and the added RETRO style by hanging and suspended from the ceiling.

Eero Aarnio Hanging Bubble Chair

Hanging Bubble Chair inspired by Eero Aarnio

The Hanging Bubble Chair was inspired by Eero Aarnio's Ball, Globe Chair in the 1960's.

This first hand made Ball Chair is still standing in Eero's house. It was this first prototype two young managers from the company Asko discovered when visiting Eero to see some pine wood designs. They were immediatly impressed and convinced of the phenomenal design. It took a few years to get it into production.

1966 the Ball Chair was presented at the international furniture fair in Cologne. It was the sensation of the fair, the international breakthrough for Eero Aarnio and the start for a whole line of fibreglass designs by Aarnio.

The result was great. It was the birth of one of the most remarkable chairs in the furniture history of the 20th century.
