The Ghost chair is a very original idea from Design Drift and was created to “show the future feeling of a chair that does not really exist yet”. Made entirely out of Plexiglas, the design consists of a white, phantomatic interior stuck inside a see-through exterior. With a different look from any angle, this chair seems especially created to catch your eye. Here is some further information from the designers concerning the Ghost Chair: “The inner ghost looks random, but in fact every line has been designed. We tried to generate the most 3-Dimensional shapes possible, that doesn’t refer to any other shapes at all. We wanted them to look new and never seen before but also natural at the same time. The possibilities of creating a ghost shape is unlimited within the boundaries of the material.The Ghost Chair is an experiment in: shape, high tech production methods and crafts.”

The designer, Charles Wilson was inspired to create the Heron lounge chair after working on a commission for NSW Government House, a Gothic Revival building in Sydney, Australia. “I was photographing the interior spaces and all these curvaceous Victorian lounge chairs and wondered how I could re-interpret these organic shapes in a modern way”
The side profile is reminiscent of a large bird coming to land; the graceful, streamlined form of the body sits on a cantilevered axis that seems to flow directly into the star base.
