Parker Knoll gets pimped

Regular readers may know that I am a big fan of the social enterprise, Out of the Dark, who work with kids who might otherwise be not be doing great things, to pimp mid-century furniture into stunning, contemporary and colourful designs.

You can read more about them here. Meanwhile, check out what they have most kindly done to this tired but distinguished Parker Knoll chair for me. Here is the before and after...

It is designed, says Out of the Dark's chief restorer and mentor, for writing in. And so here it shall live. It is also possibly the most comfortable chair I've ever sat in. 

Thank you Jay, Jade and the hard-working, highly skilled team at Out of the Dark.
