Nowadays plenty of celebrities have their own signature perfumes and clothing lines. On the other hand, Pharrell Williams, of The Neptunes and N*E*R*D fame, has his own furniture designs. This chair is one of them — the other, is also as ridiculous. The “tank wheels” are made out of plexiglass and the chair seat is made out of full grain colt leather. The design will be on display at the Galerie Emmanuel Perrotin next week during Art Basel Miami.

This has already been invented and made custom. The makers of Wall-E hired the guy as a consultant. Google tank chair and see.

Yeah, Wall-E is the thing right now, but I’m still stuck on the Number 5 resemblance.

I know, I kept thinking, “Johnny 5 Alive!!”

Somebody remind Pharrell his 15 minutes were up 3 years ago

Ha. Not so keen on this, as has already been mentioned, there are REAL tank chairs out there, much more exciting, around the same price.
Not sure I’d buy one used, but if you did, that’d probs be cheaper still…
