apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

It begs the question though -- why not a Series 7 (from which it draws inspiration)? To me, the 7 looks more comdortable, has a more balaced shape, is a classic, and comes in more colours, so why go for a Tate chair?

The Series 7 is great, but I'm all for the padded version of the Tate chair which looks great upholstered. If you look at the pictures again, they kind of resemble tall bowler hats!
