The Design

About Existence Stol

Existence je stol, zasnovan za razmišljanje. Stol je obravnavan kot arhitekturni element, ki definira rob in prepušča prostor umu, da ga zapolni. Izdelana sta bila dva prototipa iz nerjavečega jekla. Sedenje na Existence zahteva pozornost in mišični napor, zato stol omejuje fizično udobje, da bi sprostil um. Vsak stol meri 1000 mm v širino, 800 mm v globino in 600 mm v višino. Prototipi so bili oblikovani ročno, pri čemer so bile prilagojene različne tehnike za doseganje natančne izdelave.
