The Pioneer Stool’s wooden frame features sculptural indentations that harmoniously blend with the rounded seat cushion to create an artistic piece of furniture that honours the heritage of minimalist Scandinavian design.
Maria Braun has used this distinctive combination of shapes and materials to create a contemporary piece with a functional yet soft aesthetic. The talented artisans at Fredericia have rendered Bruun’s design in solid wood and foam, creating a robust and striking piece of furniture that is suited to a wide variety of different settings.
Playing with tactility and scale, Maria Bruun explores many disciplines within her designs, creating carefully considered sculptural pieces.
With an innovative approach to classic craft techniques, Bruun explores the parameters between material and form. She has received several design awards including Dezeen’s Emerging Designer of the Year and the Danish Design Award for Best Design of the Year.
