I don’t plan on doing this every Friday, I just feel like it today. I’ve chosen my current top 5 chairs that would complement a simple sofa.
Modernica Case Study Arm Chair with Eiffel base or Eames RAR Rocker from DWR
Philippe Starck Ghost Chair
Eames Lounge and Ottoman
Eames Plywood Lounge
Thomas Pedersen Stingray Rocking Chair

Damn we have similar taste. I’m all over the LCW chair. First choice red. Second black.

The Eames Plywood is one of my favs too! Simple, organic, and so chic!

Interesting – you just posted 4 of my 5 favourite chairs (you forgot the Panton S – although that compliments a dining table more than a sofa, so you’re excused ;) )

Love the Panton too, but you’re right it’s more of a dining chair…perhaps that will be my next top 5 post :)

I am really thinking about getting the first for my kitchen but have to order it fast b/c this is the only time to get it shipped to Morocco. The problem is that I am not sure what my scheme will be for my kitchen and think I might be sad if I only got white. I love the blue one that they have in DWR. ~Sigh. What to do?

LCW all the way. Walnut is awesome. I have a problem when I first ordered and got the black ones… started peeling after a week…. Of no USE!!!! a quick call to my friends at Highbrowfurniture replaced those 2 by the walnut version that I have now. later I ordered a DCW in red for the home office and I couldn’t be happier!

I adore the Eames Plywood Lounge! When I first bought my house years ago I went furniture shopping at Room and Board. I sat in that Eames chair and it was like a little bit of heaven. So so comfortable and sleek. Sadly it’s still not in my budget. Sigh.

I really want all of them. I certainly have a hard enough time making decisions as it is…
