AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

AKA
Konstantin Grcic

Stool.
Material: beech plywood, natural or stained.
Condition : new
Colour : petrole blue


Part chair, part stool, part sculpture: this is AKA.
Also Known As... stool, AKA showcases the designer’s great furniture-making expertise and his absolute drive for sustainability. Once again, Grcic’s humanistic approach
to design is paired with a formal rigour to give us a simple object that interprets the
fundamentals of design with intelligence and a hint of irony.
Its beauty lies in the details: three pieces of beech plywood are merging rigourous
geometry with elegant curves. The two outer sections fit into the notches of the
central element in a clean, refined way. The exposed wood grain adds a touch of
familiarity to the object. AKA, with its three colour variations, adds character and
versatility to a diversity of situations in private and public.
