In
spring of 1997, I was sitting at the Japanese seminar at Beckmans School
of Design when I had a revelation.
The stage was taken by a small japanese architect, Schigero Ban. He told us about his
life and philosophy and about the furniture and houses which he had designed.
This
man designed houses out of cardboard-pipes that could be assembled in
one day. Not only were they cheap, low in material cunsumption and easy
to transport, but also beautiful to the eye.
This corresponds
to my image of furniture in the nineties - environmentaly adapted, simple
and low consumption of material. The stool consists of four similar pieces,
assembled into a stable construction. |
