Last year UK furniture designer Nick Rawcliffe released his cast aluminum Ribbon stool in a limited edition run of 100. Available in a brushed or polished finish, the form, which is inspired by charity ribbons, is almost more sculpture than stool. They sold out, but now UK distributor Deadgood has released an upholstered, slightly more affordable version of Ribbon stool made from recycled plastic, foam and fabric in a “cutting edge” production method that involves a “rotational molding process.” The form is then upholstered in beautiful, high quality Kvadrat Divina 3 & 2 fabrics. Cloaking the sleek, silver version of the stool in bright, friendly colors makes the design much more universal and appropriate for galleries as well as in the home.
