Casalino chair by Alexander Begge for kids

Posted on | Leave a comment

2009-143_3

We featured the Casalino chair a while back, when it started being reproduced again using the original moulds, but did you know that there's also a kids version of this Alexander Begge design? 

Yes, this classic piece of space age design is available sized for children. These chairs are also made using the original moulds, dating back to the 1970s. It shares its shape and material with the grown-up version so also shares some of the designs practical advantages: it's suitable for outdoor use and is stackable.

The kid's version comes in two sizes, take your pick from 'Junior' or 'Toddler' depending on the size of your offspring. 

The chairs cost £88 each.

You’ll no doubt already be familiar with the Acapulco Chair, but what about its smaller relative the Acapulco Mini?

Just like the original, the Mini version has a solid steel frame with a powder coating and is suitable for use outdoors – the only difference being that this one is child-size. It is available in a choice of light blue, yellow or black.

It costs 135 Euros if you buy it directly from Oficina Kreativa.

Robot alarm clock

This robot alarm clock from Habitat is a great piece of fun retro design for your kids – or just yourself.

The robot stands at just over 11cm high and is made from plastic. As well as looking good, he's got the added bonus of a clock in his stomach – and an alarm to go with it. This blue hatted robot is our favourite but Habitat is also stocking a slightly crazed looking pink robot alarm clock too. 

They're both currently reduced in price to £8.
