Many of us have that one special chair we think of as our special chair. Some prefer rockers or recliners. I am an armchair kind of gal, myself, furniture stores . I like the wallow-in-me comfort of my big over-stuffed armchair for reading a book or sharing text messages with my “BFF”. Still, with the revolution going on in the world of furnishings today, even classic armchair furniture design is not sacred. Many furniture designers are already working and playing with new ways to make the old stand-by even more comfortable and good looking and their doing it with space age technology.
While I admit that I remain skeptical about their being able to improve upon “my chair”, I do think that the talented designers who are undertaking this task now possess technology that might make this seemingly impossible task doable. Using computers to model the chair, they can use virtual test subjects and add knowledge of human anatomy as well as studies done on how we sit when reading or watching television. Putting all of this data together may allow modern designers to improve upon armchair furniture design that has remained untouched for generations. After all, until now, no one believed these chairs could be made any better.
Will these high-tech changes enable designers to improve all armchairs? While many have high hopes for their success, I simply do not know. One thing I do know is that they won’t be improving mine. I’ve got it good and broken in to suit me perfectly. The only way I’d trade it for a new and improved model would be if mine disintegrated from being over loved. Still, I do hope they can make one at least as comfortable for the rest of you. Until they do, you’ll just have to envy me my perfect escape chair.
