With the furniture series Easy Edges, Frank Gehry gave a new and surprising aesthetic dimension to cardboard, an everyday material. Although they look amazingly simple, the pieces in Easy Edges owe their robustness and structural stability to the architectural quality of the designs. The Wiggle Stool is vaguely reminiscent of traditional African stools and – like such predecessors – makes an attractive accent in any interior.

n 2000, talented Finnish designer Jukka Setälä introduced the newest–and possibly the largest–of Sacco’s spawn: the Fatboy. Soon the Fatboy, like an autumn salmon, returned to its home and multiplied, so that Setälä’s company now offers four models of beanbag furniture and one hammock. What truly sets these pieces apart from other similar products (more than just their size) is their versatility. Whatever your fitness magazines may tell you, we say it’s always good to have a Fatboy around the house. Colors may differ from monitor view. Please request for a swatch, if you are unsure of fabric color.
