At Salone del Mobile 2010, Italian manufacturer Caimi Brevetti exhibited their new Miao Stool that has been designed by Marco Cocco.
Description from Caimi Brevetti:
The Miao stool is all in metal and the shape of the seat is wittily inspired by a silhouette of a cat head.
The design is immediately recognisable and shows an eye for detail. Miao features round and minimalist lines, smooth aluminium and chrome-plated steel in a number of finishes and thicknesses, making it a beautiful and comfortable seat for home use and for public spaces such as receptions, lounges and bars, snack rooms, etc
Miao is extremely stable thanks to its square chrome-plated steel base; the column height can be adjusted with the die-cast aluminium lever while a convenient footrest is built right in.
