SCRW Stool by Manuel Welsky
German designer Manuel Welsky has created the SCRW stool.
.
Description from the designer:
Inspiration for this two-piece furniture was an object from everyday life: The bottle corks. Simple and aesthetically it rotates out of the bottle, and simple and aesthetically should be the principle of “SCREW”.
Obvisiously, “Screw” is based on the principle of screwing. The new interpretation of the screw makes the height adjustment self-explanatory and easy. By the apparent leadership of the screw thread, the refined combination comes into focus. Made from a high-quality steel pipe, the frame is an exciting contrast to the cork material from which the body is made. The massive Korkzylinder is light in this combination and because of its unique features provides a comfortable seating experience.

I’ve followed you guys for about a year and have loved everything you’ve posted until now. Don’t get me wrong. i love the enginuity and originality of the design. However, I’m not so sure about this one. I don’t like the simplicity of the stool although the colors are fine.

Interesting. It looks unstable though – it could tilt to one side and down you go…

How easy or hard is it to rotate the cork around the korkzylinder?
Would be nice if it’s pictured with a person so we’ll know the proportions.

How big are these things? Gotta see a pic with someone actually trying to use one. Interesting idea though.

This is actually a superb idea for musician children. For example harpists and cello players rarely fins a chair that is ‘right’ for more than a few months as they grow and this would grow with them. Where can I buy one?

Verry creative! Although I don’t like the materialization… Could be more modern.
