Weightless in the Moon Chair: a dream for children, a wish for adults

If I were a child, I’d want to flop into this chair immediately. There’s just something appealing about it – and not just because it’s called «Moon Chair».

When I look at the Moon Chair, I wish I was five years old again. It looks like the perfect, cosy spot I could lean back and relax in – almost as if I were weightless in outer space. I could sit upright, lie on it upside down or lie sideways.

It’d be easy to adjust my sitting position and simultaneously create fantasy worlds because the Moon Chair from the Danish brand Wigiwama consists of three parts. I could imagine bouncing on a moon where there’s no gravity and jumping effortlessly from one part of the chair to another. Or turning the individual parts into satellites that orbit me.

The Moon Chair is available at Galaxus in four bright colours and two materials, so you’re spoilt for choice. I’d probably be torn between the cosy corduroy and the soft teddy fabric. And my parents would be «over the moon» that all the covers can be removed and washed.

The neutral design will suit a playroom or living room.

But I’m no longer a child and there isn’t an adult version of the Moon Chair, so I only have one option – I’ll give it to my five-year-old niece. I hope she likes the chair and «floats» on it a bit even if it doesn’t have Elsa on it.
