Israeli industrial designer Arik Ben Simhon has created a seat called the Bici stool that is inspired by a bicycle. The top of the Bici stool is in the shape of a bike seat and is offered in six vibrant, metallic hues. Simhon’s furniture designs are all influenced by sports and athletic equipment, and the Bici stool is no exception. The simplistic design is made from stainless steel and shiny leather. The stool is even on wheels, although, its three legs make it more of a tricycle than a bicycle.
