Tomato Chair
The tomato chair is once again a clever variation of the Ball
chair. The chair is in fact three balls with the same diameter
joined together with a part of another ball with the same diameter.
The Tomato Chair looks complicated but in fact it is quite simple.
The chair was used as part of a set in the 'Men in Black'.
Cara Greenberg in her book OP TO POP Furniture of the 1960s (New
York 1999): "Its outlandish silhouette made Eero Aarnio´s
Tomato Chair of 1971 one of the exclamation points of the era."
