About Chic Stol

Ta stol naj bi bil najbolj privlačen del notranjosti, v središču pozornosti. In res ima značilnosti za to. Ob hitrem pogledu pusti vtis skulpture, umetniškega dela, kot oživljena 3D slika Vasilija Kandinskega. In predstavljajte si, da ga imate lahko v svoji sobi kot košček okolja. Daleč od standardov, kako naj bi tipičen stol izgledal, ima zelo specifično in prepoznavno obliko. Najbolj edinstvena značilnost tega stola je njegova nenavadna oblika. Predstavlja geometrijsko abstrakcijo, kjer je umetnost naklonjena funkcionalnosti.
