Luis Gimeno designs the Walle stool, which has a thoughtful structure made from metal. The most notable component of the Walle stool is how users interact with transitional seating spaces. The wallet incorporates book storage into the silhouette with 2-3 books within arm's reach.
There are four components that come flat packed for users to put together. It only requires four screws to hold it all in place. The Walle's bottom shelf slots the notches into the opposing legs with no additional hardware needed. This simplifies the assembly process and packages the entire stool in a compact form -- this is optimal for shipping, storage, and through the transportation process for a conscious approach through and through.
