Dripta Roy of Puur designs makes the perfect chair for mama, papa and a couple of baby bears- a set of chairs that fit together to take up less space when you are alone...

...or four chairs when you have a crowd.

Puur is an interesting concept for a design studio: it has designers in the Netherlands and Australia, with manufacturing in Canada- "a unique product design house of the future." More at Puur via Notcot

nice but I prefer the original and better design by Frank Gehry (yes him!) which has a cut in the centre to allow the material properties of the chair to introduce flex, his were made of a sort of cardboard, and he did it in the 70s.
