Peekaboo chair provides privacy for a price

With all the technology designed to keep us connected to each other, sometimes the need for separation and privacy becomes intense. You just need to get unhooked from all the cell phones, social networking sites, and e-mails that keep you tethered to other people all day long. Other times, being surrounded by so much overpriced technology screws up your perspective, makeing you think the need for isolation can only be solved by spending loads of money on yet another overdesigned piece of artsy furniture. In the latter case you might end up with something like this Peekaboo chair, a chair with an attachable hood for isolation that will set you back a cool $3,570, which is about $3,550 more than the cost of pulling a blanket over your head. And that's if you need to go out and buy a blanket, which you probably don't. There are no fancy electronic features here, just a hood that goes over your head. The Peekaboo chair is available in hoity-toity designer furniture store ICF in New York City now.
