An ultimate, simple U-shape. How to place and use it depends entirely on your imagination.
A stool or side table for work desks, lectures, or cafe terraces; stacked as shelves or used as a magazine rack; with the crossbar acting as a handle when carried. Versatile elements are seamlessly integrated into the design.
A historic furniture brand established in Switzerland in 1931. In the past, it manufactured products for renowned architects such as Aalto, Le Corbusier, and Mies. Today, centered on Max Bill's works, it delivers furniture that can truly be called masterpieces to the world.
【Design Committee Selection Comment】
The Ulm School of Design was an educational institution inheriting the philosophy of Bauhaus, but regrettably closed in 1968. This historic stool bears the name of the university. Designed with a priority on function, its form resulted in pure simplicity. A versatile stool that functions as a side table or a tray to hold books.
