Product details

The Tri-Space Stool is as much an engineering accomplishment as it is a stunningly simple design. Using lightweight materials to create a stool weighing less than 10kg/22lbs, Woodgate and Barnard achieved something incredibly simple, yet complex in design construction.

The stool pairs soft, warm leather with the elegance of the industrial stainless steel tripod legs, with the seat perfectly balancing on top of a single point where the legs meet the leather pad.

Two Royal Designers for Industry, one from the world of furniture design, and one from the world of Formula 1 racing car design collaborated to create the Tri-Space Stool, a super-slim three-legged counter and bar stool.

"The design is a blend of precision engineering and minimal design" says designer Terence Woodgate about the Tri-Space Stool he designed with Formula 1 race car designer John Barnard.

"The concept for the rotating stool came about after seeing the neat rectangular stainless steel section tube. We realised that it would work really well structurally and aesthetically as the legs for a stool. We then set about designing a simple bearing based on PTFE discs. A leather upholstered injection moulded foam seat pad makes a beautiful contrast to the brushed stainless steel."

 

The Tri-Space Stool was awarded the prestigious Design Guild Mark in 2017. The Design Guild Mark is awarded by The Furniture Makers Company in order to drive excellence and raise the profile of British design and innovation. It recognises the highest standards in the design of furnishings and lighting for volume production, by the finest designers working in Britain, or British designers working abroad.
