Eiffel Stool by Shigeki Fujishiro
The "three-legged stool" is considered the most versatile and ideal form for working. By finding parallels between form derivative of tool, and form derivative of function, the stool was designed in pursuit of material simplicity and elegance. Made of pure pulp and recycled paper, the chair is durable, biodegradable and environmentally considerate material innovation. The truss produces internal tension and compression, creating a light and strong framework which defies conventional applications of paper. "Eiffel" is a reference to the mastery of the structural composition demonstrated by Eiffel Tower in Paris.
