Fish Chair

I was reading a copy of ShortList magazine, when I came across an article about a Dutch Firm (Ontwerpers) who have taken inspiration from nature to create a new product.



As you can see from this picture, this seems like an amazing idea, why has no one thought of this brilliant solution to a comfy read at night before?!
Well these designers have taken to looking at nature, in this case, specifically the 'angler fish' which most people will be most familiar with from Finding Nemo.





This fish uses a light attached to a growth protruding from their head to lure unsuspecting fish in the dark...although the light from the chair is for something quite different it is still interesting how we can take inspiration from nature to influence our design, after all, it has worked for them for millions of years, why not learn from that to improve our world!
