It has three molded legs and a round seat. It can be used as extra seating and is easily stackable. We all know it well: the archetypal three-legged stool. Nearly everyone has had a variation of it in their home at some point in their lives but often its design is taken for granted. Precisely the rethinking of something as simple as a stool was the starting point for Normann Copenhagen's Tap Stool.Slightly hard foam has been used for the seat, which, like rubber, has a flexible, sealed surface. This makes Tap dirt-resistant, durable and easy to clean. The moulded seat ensures good seating comfort and provides the stool with the same welcoming warmth known from upholstered furniture. The three legs have an integrated transition to the seat. This gives Tap the appearance of a unified whole, even when seen from the side. Use it as an extra seat or to rest your feet on when tired.
Simon Legald
Simon Legald graduated from The Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts in the summer of 2012. His work consists of both small- and large scale products. Simon's designs are often created in a dialogue between craftsmanship and industry. He also likes to incorporate the techniques that are necessary for the structure of a product into the design by highlighting them visually.
"Honesty is what makes a product understandable and is what describes the products functionality. If you understand the product, it does not need any explanation. The essence of my design is for it to be bought and used. Therefore, it has to satisfy not only the functional aspects, but also the psychological and aesthetic needs. For me simplicity describes the true identity of objects and makes them trustworthy. In my design, I try not to add any unnecessary details. I work with simplicity by highlighting the necessities instead of hiding them. It gives the product a simple and honest expression."
