Design Against Crime's anti-purse-theft Chair

By Rain Noe - November 11, 2009

in Object Culture

It's like Arne Jacobsen collaborating with McGruff the Crime Dog: The Stop Thief Chair, designed by the UK's Design Against Crime, is like Jacobsen's iconic Series 7 chair but with two slots to accommodate purse straps, hanging it in a difficult-to-snatch location.

The concept has been around for a while but the chairs, which are stackable and come in 12 colors, have just gone into actual production by Danish furniture company Dan-Form.
