The Old Bean Chair
The original pear-shaped bean chair was invented in the 1960s by a group of Italian furniture designers. They used the space-age materials of the time, vinyl and polystyrene, to create a chair that would conform to one person's body when they sat down, allowing for comfort in any position. The bean bag chair became an overnight success, and it's still one of the great style icons of the 1970s.
Back in the sixties and seventies, your parents may have owned those old bean chairs with vinyl covers that stuck to your skin when you sat down. The polystyrene pellets would squeak and shift when you sat on the bean bag chair, and over time, they compressed and settled so that the bean chair lost much of its comfort. The vinyl covers on older bag chairs could also come unzipped, letting the plastic pellets spill out and create a mess and a choking hazard. But that was then.
The New Style
In modern times, bag furniture doesn't contain squeaky plastic pellets or fit just one person or even have one type of cover. The amazing new beanbag furniture is sturdily constructed of space age materials guaranteed to last. Modern beanbag furniture is filled with shreds of urethane foam, which creates a spongy, soft feel. Bean bag furniture covers are made from modern fabrics like micro-suede that offer an amazing texture and easy clean up. Modern bag covers can also be removed and machine washed while the shredded urethane foam stays safely inside the inner liner.
Modern bags offer modern decorative style. Having new bean furniture doesn't look back to the 1970s. The unique shape offered by bag furniture today fits with a relaxed style that's focused on utility and comfort rather than tradition. The various sizes available for modern beanbags also helps create a modern style in any room. Instead of one-size-fits-none chairs, bean bag furniture comes in sizes big enough for the whole family, and it can be used as a couch or a spare bed. Modern bean bag furniture also fits in with contemporary ideas of simple design by being easily stored when not in use.
While the round, organic shapes of modern chairs fit into a contemporary style, the most stylish thing about bean bag furniture is the color and texture options. With machine-washable covers in a variety of fabrics, bean bag furniture can match any decor. Traditionalists can go with micro-suede in earth tones, but the stylistically adventurous can go with bright colors to add visual interest to a room.
