Where do Vespas go when they retire? Well designers at Barcelona-based studio Bel & Bel, decided that when the time comes they should get a cushy desk job. The chairs are made with Original Vespa frames, which are then padded and upholstered with leather to give you something sleek to lounge/work on.
If you want something a little different from the usual Eames or Wegner why not take a look at the Butterfly Chair by Ercol. Designed by Lucian Ercolani in 1958 it’s still being made by the iconic English Company.
If you’re in Australia Temperature Design are now selling select Ercol pieces.
