Chairs not only provide a place to sit but they also function as a medium to express personal taste and style. Different kinds of chair designs are available; some feature distinctive shapes while others are crafted from innovative material such as recycled ocean plastic.
Hong Kong-based Alvarae Design Studio known for making carbon fiber furniture has however created an unusual chair that marries the good of both worlds. Entitled Phantom Chair, it is an all-black chair featuring both, a unique shape and choice of material.
It is crafted from a large sheet of carbon fiber that is creased in a way to create a hollow internal structure for a person to sit on. The design also includes armrests and base, crafted from the same sheet of fiber. The chair weighs just 5kg and can support up to 200kg.

The Phantom Chair is not an everyday chair rather a ghostly piece clothed under a single sheet of carbon that you want to cozy up in when binge-watching horror movies alone. If this creeps you up, the Phantom Chair can be had for a whopping $15,000.
