Life after COVID-19 has gradually begun to return to normal, and with that, there has been an increased desire to spend more time together—outdoors. This exceptional Low Stool is designed to encourage people to take a break from busy urban life to enjoy nature.
The design is made of the commonly used wood of Higashikawa, honoring local traditions and craftsmanship expressed through a contemporary form. From the materials to the construction, the Low Stool reflects a balanced match between functionality and aesthetics.
