Nitton Stool by Karl-Oskar
Swedish designer Karl-Oskar has created the Nitton Stool.
From the designer:
A stool made in bent wood. The construction allows much weight with minimum material, the form is bent in two ways. The stool is sustainable designed, use of material and choice of glue makes the stool environmentally friendly.
The name of the stool comes from the Swedish word for nineteen. The stools angle is nineteen degrees, put nineteen stools together and you’ll get a circle, a perfect size to easily communicate within a group for example at the library or at the museum.

At a glance people will just say, “So what? It is a bent piece of wood, nothing special.” But there is a lot of thought into the angle the stool is bent and the name, etc. I like it. So simple that it will be under appreciated.

It doesn’t even look comfortable to sit on.
