A better Adirondack

August 27, 2007 by Andrea Bellamy 3 Comments

While I’ve never had an appropriate setting in which to place an Adirondack chair (lakefront cottage pending), I have always appreciated their comfort and practicality (built-in drink “tables”!).

Room & Board’s Emmet chair and ottoman is a pretty sweet take on the original. Sleek and sexy – and made from 100 percent post-industrial recycled plastic. Guess sometimes you can improve on the classics.

    Call me a purist but I prefer the wood variety.

    You may also want to check out Loll – they make a very cool range of similar furniture out of the same recycled stuff. I bit pricy though, even with the today’s mighty Canuck buck.

    Melissa – it is hard to beat the tactile nature of real wood.

    Kevin – great find! I’m blogging that.
