DeGaulle Airport?

I was flying through Paris recently after a month-long vacation and noticed these great leather chairs in various spots around the airport.

For anyone not immediately familiar with them, they're brown or black leather, and have vertical sides and three angled portions to the body-shaped seating surface.

I found them quite comfortable and would greatly appreciate hearing anything anyone here might know about them, like who designs them and where I might order one.

Thanks,

You know, this just might be the most original thread I've seen on NSG for a long while. Strange, but original.

Go to the airport with a water pistol, find a supervisor, and order that he surrender his stock of cushy leather chairs immediately. Singing the Deutschlandlied draped in the German flag wouldn't hurt either.

Can't argue with the effectiveness of that, but traveling to Paris is a real budget burner.

Does anyone actually know the chair I'm thinking of, or one that looks like it?

those are only for the elderly and the handicapped I am surprised you didn't get a ticket.

Nope, sorry. But they do sound quite comfortable. I wanna try them now. Mmm, butt comfort and leather. You canĀ“t beat that!:D

I wonder if those are the same ones (and by the design description, I think they're a bit similar) as are in Frankfurt Airport (Germany, not Kentucky).

They look really inviting to lie back on for a few minutes.... but be warned. I slept in on for about 9 hours (long layover)

Worst.
Pain.
Ever.
