With new strollers and car seats increasingly designed with a sleek modern edge, it’s about time that high chairs, too, graduate from the pink-and-blue plastic age. That’s why the modern family design company Fleurville recruited designer Yves Béhar to develop the ultra-mod Calla high chair ($925).
Shaped like its namesake, the calla lily, the chair is made of nylon neoprene and fitted with a foam seat. Available in primary colors including red and yellow, the chair sits on a sturdy round aluminum ring base. Hidden ball-point wheels on the bottom make for easy maneuvering, while a hand break-locking system keeps it in place. Its unique features include an easily removable dishwasher safe tray, a foot rest that can swivel out of the way, and a comfortable seat cushion for infants and toddlers.
The high chair — available in November — will make mealtimes enjoyable and very chic for little ones and the people that eat with them.
