Lapalma, AP Stool Shin Azumi, This project began as an experiment to express the excellence of bent plywood in a maximized way.

The aim was not only to explore sculptural beauty, but to also maximize functionality within a minimal structure.
The final result is a stool with a mono-coque structure, created from a single sheet of plywood. Unlike other stools there is no distracting division between its parts.
The seat and body of the stool seamlessly merge from one to the other in a single fluid motion.
The stool has a large contact area between itself and the floor to disperse the pressure.
