Making the Eero Aarnio Ball Chair Icon

Finnish furniture designer Eero Aarnio created the original Ball Chair in 1963. Considered a classic of industrial design it is also referred to as The Globe Chair. Many color combos are now available, however the original Ball Chair was created with one color option, a white outer shell and red cloth interior. The original Ball Chair features a 5 panel interior liner. The original shell was made of fiberglass with a consistent glossy finish. Sitting on a wide circular base, the Ball Chair turns a full 360 degrees on its axis.

About "Finland Thick" Microfiber Twill

swatch Twill is an interwoven knit fabric. The thread takes turns in an over and under weave forming a crooked yet overall lineal rectangle pattern that can be discerned at close range. The pattern exists but appears somewhat random when viewed from a normal distance. Microfiber Twill features a finer, tightly tailored flat weave appearance.

Microfiber Twill provides perhaps a more refined, tailored appearance than that of a typical coarse twill. It relies on the multi-tone nature of the fabric strands themselves to provide the appearance of depth of texture.
