With a goal of achieving both simplicity and functionality, this stool was influenced by the concepts and design
ideologies of the founding fathers of Scandinavian Design.
ideologies of the founding fathers of Scandinavian Design.
Inspired by Hans Wegner's 'Peter's Chair' – designed for easy assembly and flat pack productions, Verner Pantont's geometric, color-blocked 'Vilbert Chair' for Ikea, and John Kandell's primary-colored 'Camilla chair' that has the ability to hang on a wall for storage, the Bauhaus Stool ties each concept together into one seamless design.
As a graphic designer based in New York City, I created this stoll with graphic aesthetic and small spaces in mind. The aim was to construct a functional chair that could double as a simple but striking sculpture when not in use. The stool consists of 3 basic shapes and colors and assembles with no additional joinery or hardware.
