Gehry has always experimented with materials. Have you ever checked out his constant work-in-progress, his house in Venice Beach?* The Wiggle Chair makes a great occasional chair, especially in a modern room like this one. There is a strong contrast between the sculptural Wiggle and these rich leather and chrome Corbusier chairs.
*To see Gehry's Venice Beach house, check out the documentary I'm recommending at the end of this ideabook. He experimented with chain link fencing, glass, corrugated metal, and plywood. Don't try that if you live in a neighborhood with a busybody homeowner's association!
