Glam it up: The Pink Swan Project

SUITE New York tasked the world's top designers to re-imagine a mid-century classic in the name of charity. The Pink Swan Project, benefiting breast cancer research, features 19 customized Swan chairs. All are interesting, but Windsor Smith's design (above) is by far the sexiest and most glamorous. It's the new power chair!

I was inspired by Madonna's corset as a symbol of empowerment for women who are battling breast cancer. The rosy colored base represents a positive outlook for the strong woman who I envision sitting in this chair.
