The Wiggle Stool by Vitra (Frank O. Gehry, 1972): Frank Gehry is well known for his use of unusual materials. With his "Easy Edges" furniture series he succeeded in giving a new aesthetic dimension to cardboard, an unassuming everyday material. Although they look suprisingly simple, the "Easy Edges" pieces have been constructed with an architect's skill and are exceedingly robust and stable.
Corrugated cardboard, edges made of hardboard, natural.
406 x 430 x 400 mm.
406 x 430 x 400 mm.
