Since feeling the earth beneath your feet can be quite calming, designer Diletta Orlandi decided that the experience should be recreated inside the home. The Green Hill Footrest brings a bit of your lawn into your living room with a strip of astro turf covering its surface.
Collaboration with Limonta Sport Technology made the synthetic grass component possible and TN is responsible for producing the brushed steel frame. This part of the footstool comprises a flattened arch with a folded shelf integrated in the bottom.
The lightweight ottoman can be moved from the couch to the armchair, offering comfort wherever. The gap in the bottom of the Green Hill Footrest provides a bit of storage space in which you can stash your shoes, magazines or other household items.
