The Design

About Folded 01 Iessstull

Folded 01 ass en Iessstull. D'Sëtzfläch an d'Réckelehn si aus engem eenzege Blat rou Aluminium geformt, mat der Hand gebéit. Déi gefaltene Form gëtt dem Stull Steifegkeet an en natierleche Béieungseffekt, deen de Komfort verbessert. D'Aluminiumblat ass op engem faarwege Stolrahmen montéiert, wat e feint Faarfdetail liwwert. D'Design war inspiréiert vum Falten vun engem véiereckege Pabeierzettel, deen no dem Falten steif gëtt. De Stull moosst 450 mm an der Breet, 500 mm an der Déift an 800 mm an der Héicht. D'Zil war et, zréck zur Essenz vum Objet mat engem minimalen Erschénungsbild ze kommen.
