About Book Stol
Book er en stol, der også kan holde og fremvise en åben bog. Designet er et skulpturelt studie i geometri og symmetri, og hver vinkel er nøje beregnet. Book er fremstillet af massiv hvid eg og europæisk valnød. En central egetræsskive forankrer stellet, hvor tre skrå ben mødes. Fire messingstænger aflaster spændinger ved centrale samlinger og giver ekstra stabilitet. Alle overflader er håndbehandlet med naturlige olier, som giver en mat tekstur og bevarer træets naturlige fornemmelse. Sædehøjden er 450 millimeter.

Press Kit
- Unique Properties
- The Bookchair is more than a stool or a chair. It is a sculptural study in geometry and symmetry. Every angle is meticulously calculated to bridge the gap between furniture and art. While its 18-inch height offers utility, its true purpose is to cradle an open book, an invitation to slow down and reflect. More than a functional object, it is a quiet gesture of intentionality, designed for those who value both form and the written word.

- Production Technology
- Crafted from solid white oak and European walnut, the Bookchair balances warmth with structural depth. A central oak disc anchors the piece, distributing force where three angled legs converge. For engineered stability, four 1/3" brass rods act as discreet tension relievers at key junctions. Each surface is hand-finished with natural oils, creating a matte, luminous texture that preserves the wood's tactile essence. It is a marriage of meticulous joinery and organic materiality.
- Inspiration
- Guided by geometry and architectural symmetry, the Bookchair is a study in visual clarity. Inspired by Lina Bo Bardi, whose furniture blended modernist rigor with Brazilian vernacular and handcraft. It blends modernist rigor with Brazilian cultural honesty. This piece honors Brazilian modernism through a balance of function and sculptural form. Whether supporting an open book or standing alone, it exists at the intersection of utility and art. An object to be used, and one to be contemplated.
