Any two parts can also be joined, so one, two or three people can sit. The seats are made of plywood, which gives strong support, and all three parts are cut from a single wood panel measuring 1.2 by 2.4 meters.

And the three stool is made of a 1.2 meter in width and 2.4 meter in length wood block.
Design Challenge
It is so hard for designers to design a way to combine three chairs as one. The most common chair in the market in not suitable to fold. And he find the structure he used is a smart way to combine chairs, however, it may not as comfortable as users think it is. Therefore, Albert measured the distance of the small piece and do lots of experiment to find a balance between structure and user experience.
Research
Albert do a research among the famous chair and the new chair in the market. And Albert learn something from the old style chairs and he appreciate the chair that can be easily moved to another place as well as save space. As we know, in some area in China, the house is so experience for the young people. Therefore, Albert design Suite Stool to save place.
Inspiration
Nowadays, it esay to design huge things.However, Albert found that not everybody have space to place those huge products. And more and more people in China have to live in small room, who are pretty hard to have big furniture. What designers should design as a designer is to design things in a smart way while solving the main problem.Therefore, Albert design this new kind of stool to ensure that people have more place for other things.
Project Duration
The project started in November 2018 in Shanghai and finished in January 2019 in Shanghai, and was exhibited in 'Design Shanghai' in March 2019.
Operation Flow
The users can use this stool as a whole, or as three chairs. All users need to do is to pull out the stool and it can be separated to three parts. And they can combine any of the two stools to have a new stool, which make it available for one or two or three people to sit.
