THE – 座 –

bud brand 2017 in milano salone

Stoolというモノと “座” にフォーカスしstoolの“THE”を提案します。

スタッキングできるミニマルな形状のstool。
好きなところへ持ち運びラフに座り一息をつく、生活の中で気分を変えるモノとして人に寄添うstoolです。
地域や文化により様々な方法・素材で“座る”というコトがおこなわれて来ました。日本では畳や座布団などに座り、
休息時には床座をしたくなるのも文化の現れだと感じます。
このstoolは座面の素材や形状を多彩にし、その人に合った感覚の座りここちで、ひとときの休憩に時間以上の
安らぎを感じるモノになればと考えます。



We present “THE,” which focuses on the stool as an object and the concept of “ZA” (Japanese for “seat”).

This is a stackable stool with a minimal shape.
It accompanies people as an object, which they can carry around anywhere they like. They can sit on it
casually while taking a break and refreshing their spirits as life goes on around them.
The act of “sitting” has been performed in a variety of ways, using various materials, in different places and
cultures. In Japan, the desire to sit on the floor to rest, on tatami mats or on a zabuton floor cushion, seems to
be an expression of the culture.
The seat of this stool comes in a variety of materials and shapes to suit each person’s sense of comfort. We
hope it will add a feeling of relaxation that lasts beyond the few minutes of a break period.
