The Pal Stool's solid oak frame creates a distinct, warming appearance; elegantly fitting into both classic and contemporary interiors. The curved legs rise to the full height of the seat, creating a simple, yet striking profile as they sit alongside the frame. Designed for Northern by Sami Kallio, the Pal Stool can provide elegant additional seating in a living space; whether used in a hallway or living area, the lightweight and stackable form allows for ultimate ease of movement.
Sami Kallio was born in Helsinki, Finland, and moved to Gothenburg, Sweden, at the age of two. In Kallio’s own words, his work combines the melancholy of the Finnish design heritage with the humour of the Swedish tradition.
In 2009, Kallio co-founded the Gothenburg-based furniture manufacturer Brikolör. The company aims to produce furniture with a guaranteed technical durability of 300 years. In 2011, he established Sami Kallio Studio, and launched his first collection, The Finnish Blood in Me.
