Champ Stool
Champ is a bent tubular steel stacking stool. Intended to slip effortlessly into a home, café, or office, the large diameter tubular steel gives the stool a pleasant familiarity. Named with a nod to its similarity to a champagne cage, Champ is a stool that finds function in its casual and practical nature.
One of few circular tubular stacking stools, the simple form is made possible by expert tube bending, allowing for infinite stacking without exaggerated proportions. The tube also makes for easy grabbing, and allows one to stack it without difficulty. The stool is built on two concentric circles that are linked to three legs by a seamless joint, the result of a deep exploration into connections and metalworking techniques.
