Tool (Cool) Chair! - Yanko Design

tool_chair_1

We’ve just seen so many chair designs that it’s difficult to think beyond the veritable smorgasbord of stuff we’ve seen. Designer Frederic Rätsch however, managed to break the mold with the Tool chair. Just a simple bend to the backrest and you have a chair that is more than just a seating device.

The innovative take on the chair-desk combo is also the first of its kind to be stackable. Now isn’t that just wonderful! Maybe that’s why the Tool Chair landed the iF Student Design Award this year!

Designer: Frederic Julian Rätsch
