Solar Powered Lounge Chair with Charging Station


Are you ready for some ultra modern outdoor furniture? With a growing emphasis on going "green," there has been a push towards well-designed products that are as necessary and useful and as they are eco-friendly. One of these ingenious creations is the Soft Rocker, a solar powered outdoor lounger where you can both relax and charge your electronics. MIT architecture students created this beautiful chair with the help of Professor Sheila Kennedy.

If you want to see one for yourself, make a trip out to MIT’s Killian Court in Cambridge. There are currently a number of loungers installed there!
