The Noguchi Stool
by Adélie Ducasse, Atelier Ducasse
If you need a practical yet beautiful stool, look no further! The Noguchi stool is made from beautiful rustic teak wood, and it shows in the details and colour of the wood.
The round shape makes it practical and comfortable. And let's not forget versatile as it can also be used as a side table! Handmade from natural materials, each piece features gentle imperfections and tonal shifts as quiet signatures of its unique soul.

The Idea
The Noguchi Stool was drawn for The Quarry Collection — which meant working inside the collection's rules before anything else: one material family, honest thickness, and no detail that exists only to be looked at.
The prototype went through the workshop three times. What survived is the version where nothing further could be taken away without the piece stopping working.
The Designer
Adélie Ducasse trained as a cabinetmaker before turning to design, and it shows in the joinery — nothing is hidden, nothing is glued where it could be pegged.
Her pieces for Studio Bizar began with a single question: what does a chair owe the room it stands in? The answer, so far, has been restraint.
