'eroded stool' by alessandro isola and supriya mankad

 

 

designed by alessandro isola and supriya mankad for a wine testing room in the north east of italy,
the stools have been excavated from a solid volume of cork. the recessed seat finds its way down the
back almost like a liquid has been poured on to it, flowing and finding its own path. given the main
purpose of the space: purred wine is a corollary, where the surface is CNC milled then clad in fabric.
