The Magic Stool One’s striking geometric appearance is created by combining perforated triangular shapes together. Konstantin Grcic’s futuristic design takes full advantage of the die-casting process, utilising the inherent precision of the process to create intricate three dimensional shapes. The resulting stool has a bold modernist silhouette, using the empty space created by the perforations to dramatic effect.
