Ydin Stool

Ydin

Ydin stool can be mounted by yourself, without using special tools, thanks to a simple interlocking system. The 4 identical feet are placed in no particular order and the concrete seat, acting as the keystone, keeps everything in place. Feet are made with scrap wood coming from a stairs manufacturer, easily machined using traditional woodworking techniques and finally oiled. The seat is simply moulded in a lasting fiber-reinforced UHP Concrete. Only 5 dissociable parts to be flat packed and ready to be shipped to final customers, is another sustainability argument.

Ydin Stool by Franck Divay has been highlighted as a creative example of industrial design by the A' Design Award. Ydin Stool was awarded the Silver A' Design Award in Furniture Design in 2014. The A' Furniture Design Award is an international, jury-voted, fair and ethical design accolade that recognizes exceptional design of chairs, tables, sofas, beds, cabinets, shelves, desks, wardrobes and more.
