belovedbarcelona

 

Every since I spotted it at the Interior Design Show in Toronto mid February, I’ve been pretty smitten. I encountered it again when I went to Blo Dry Bar recently, and they had two crisp white versions arranged perfectly in their waiting area. I decided afterwards to go on a quest to obtain The Barcelona Chair.

 

I’ve been looking for some time for a great white chair to uhm “think” in. Aka do work and take images for urbanebloc.com. Do expect many cameos from my newfound acquisition. It’s a beautiful, well made chair that deserves every amount of obsession that floats its way. Learn more about it here (yes, I just totally linked Wikipedia).

 

Thanks Skanwar for letting me marvel incessantly about it, and H-D for finding out the name for me. Cheers to much more Barcelona!

    Good investment since you’ll be using it to do work and such! :] It’s sooo pretty and looks soo comfy! My only worry would be other people dirtying it, HAHA. =P I would be like, “ONLY I!!!!! CAN SIT HERE!”

    @casey – so very much, I do as well!

    @sandy – it’s pretty fab, lots of maintenance that great chair is. I love tufted-ness. I hope you’re well my dear – I haven’t seen you since that random day at college park, and that was like a year ago!
