'Threefold' Stool as an Idea of Progress
This simple-looking and small, but the most innovative in technology of creation stool is the work of French designer Florent Coirier. The stool is named the "threefold" that means “triple” or “three times” because of the process of technology. The aim of the project is to promote the idea of progress and economy of production. The whole construction is made of one element but it is repeated many times just like as a fractals system. The laser is used for cutting out the steel sheet of 2mm thick and then folding program creates the same angle folds for all bends. So the final construction is assembled without welding.
