As Ludwig Mies van der Rohe said: Less is more! A masterpiece of reduction. Based on the idea of the Ball Chair the Bubble Chair is a reduction of this design. Aarnio about Bubble Chair: "After I had made the Ball Chair I wanted to have the light inside it and so I had the idea of a transparent ball where light comes from all directions. The only suitable material is acrylic which is heated and blown into shape like a soap bubble

Designed by George Nelson. With a view to bringing modern design right into the American home, George Nelson designed a range of products offering a new and unconventional interpretation of such everyday items as lamps, wall clocks, and other domestic accessories. George Nelson's wall clocks typify the spirit of the early 1950s and, at the dawn of a new century, are still a refreshing alternative to more traditional timepieces. The models selected by the Vitra Design Museum were designed between 1948 and 1952 and some of them continued to be manufactured until the mid-1970s. Made of wood and metal, these re-editions mirror the original design so beloved of collectors right down to the smallest detail. Not only the dimensions of the clock's housing and its hands but also the way it has been constructed, finish and color are true to Nelson's original designs.

Children are attracted by the bright colors and the uncoventional forms of Eero Aarnio's designs. And especially the Pony looks like an overdimensional toy. But it is not the toy Eero Aarnio has intended to create with the Pony. The dimensions are conformed to adult's size. The Pony shows the play of phantasy which is so characteristic for Eero Aarnio, and in a comfortable seat it might carry you to unknown fields of your own imagination.
