The Lockheed Lounge chair is one of my all time favorite chairs by one of my favorite designers, although it's constructed from a fiberglass core & numerous pieces of riveted sheet aluminum it feels very fluid & seamless.
Back in May the Lockheed Lounge fetched $1.6million @ auction setting a new record for a living designers work.
