From wiki....

 

Making a mountain out of a molehill is an idiom referring to over-reactive, histrionic behaviour where a person makes too much of a minor issue.

Who invented the monoblock chair?

Vico Magistretti

The first was made in 1965 by Joe Colombo, then, in 1967 the first monobloc chair was invented by the italian designer Vico Magistretti. Danish designer Verner Panton did a cantilevered one and then in the late 1970's the real thing was first made.Nov 18, 2010
