About Cream 凳子
奶油凳的座椅直边上有腿，看起来就像座椅的自然弯曲延伸。当翻转过来时，凳子可以用作玩具箱，因为它的腿就像盒子的侧面。凳子前后两侧的弯头全部是弧形的，看起来温顺可爱，大大降低了翻身时伤害孩子的可能性。略微下沉的座椅曲线带来舒适的支撑，伸展的三角形形状使凳子很容易堆放并存放在角落里。

- Unique Properties
- Based on the feature of children’s stools with a low seat, the legs are designed as an extended and curved part of the seat, to increase stability and capacity with the wide legs. The Cream Stool can be compared to a big toy for children to play games with.
- Dimensions & Packaging
- Width 297mm x Depth 274mm x Height 250, Seat width 185mm
- Tags
- Stool, children, cream, simplicity, streamline
- Production Technology
- Looking like a melting ice cream, the whole stool is made up of curves, creating an overall sense of safety. The integrated smooth appearance created by injection molding, coupled with its compact size, makes the Cream Stool more like a toy, which children will find cute and familiar.
- Research
- It is convenient to produce, as it is made with simple technology and materials without cumbersome decoration. It is also convenient to transport and store. Therefore, every family can afford it.
- Inspiration
- A stool is commonly designed with legs at corners of its seat, while the Cream Stool has legs on straight edges of its seat, which look like natural curved extensions of its seat. It is fused with toys, rather than exists as a separate piece of furniture. It is not only a stool safe and reliable to sit on, but also a ladder for children to reach toys placed high. When turned over, it becomes a toy box. Besides physical functions, it also brings a sense of company, as it can be a fortress, a toy bear’s home, etc.
- Project Duration
- The project started in March 2021 in Shanghai, China and finished in August 2022 in Shanghai,China, and is currently in production.
- Operation Flow
- The wide flat legs are more suitable for children to hold and move the Cream Stool, which becomes a toy box with the upside down. The fully curved shape also enables it to dramatically reduce the possibility of hurting children when turned over. The slightly sunken curve of its seat brings comfortable support. Moreover, the stool can be piled up to save space, and is easy to be concealed in a corner due to its triangular shape.
