Wait, so it's not REALLY a chair? Or it is?

Call it furniture or a belt, the “Chairless” by designer Alejandro Aravena is a minimal chair that allows seating for the modern nomad in between their stretched journeys. Developed for German furniture firm Vitra, the minimal chair (rather a fabric strap) draws inspiration from a strap used by Ayoreo Indians and wraps around the knees and back of the user to keep him/her in a stable position without any external support. Though, not too sure of the comfort, I presume this to be a really easy carry deal for all travelers. Claimed to be the world’s most minimal chair, the Chairless when not in use enfolds to fit in your pocket or backpack with ease.
