thingiverse

This stool was designed specifically for the Tenkaizu Budokai contest. For more information on the event, visit http://f-labo.tumblr.com/post/127462448125/tenkaizu4en. The inspiration behind this design was to replicate the sleek curves of Kobe Port Tower in my hometown. Two standout features include a hyperboloid structure that adds to its visual appeal and exceptional sitting comfort. Due to its unique structure, users can adjust the seat surface to twist it left or right, creating an engaging experience with a subtle wobble when seated.
