The JAPAN bar stool & collection is a furniture line in which the basic typology of the design can vary in material, construction, production, color and finish.​

The JAPAN bar stool was the evident and logical evolution from the basic design of the JAPAN lounge chair The bar stool has the same starting point: to design basic seating furniture from the sitting position with a minimum of materials and a simple construction, with a cozy appearance and good seating comfort.

It was a challenge  to experiment with uncommon profile dimensions and less obvious combinations of material, such as the wooden legs mounted on a metal frame of round tubes.​

Designing a new chair typology has never been a starting point for this design, but has automatically led to this unique result.​

The basic shape of this chair is also suitable for other variation/versions e.g. with a seat and back in plastic for mass production.

Available for production partnership with a manufacturer.
