    1) "The design philosophy of Mark Gutjahr, who "invented" the chair and is a member of the renowned design group Kombinat, is based upon the dynamic tension between the formal shape with its rectangular and square surfaces and the materials used."

    2) "A man named Lee, from Westport, New York, invented the chair to enjoy the view of Lake Champlain."

    3) "It is widely believed that the Egyptians invented the chair. We first discovered them in tombs, and on the frescoes of Pompeii. These early chairs, although beautiful with ornate carvings, were more like small benches. The Greeks later developed a more comfortable version called the klismos, which had sabre legs with curving supports rising from the seat as a continuation of the back legs, and had the first curved seat backs."
