Stool 60 Added by AlvarAalto

The Model No. 60 stool, designed circa 1932-1933, demonstrated Alvar Aalto's interest in basic functional, utilitarian forms. It was constructed of bent laminated birch, and originally came in all natural (plain) or curled birch, or with a black, red, or blue seat with natural (plain) legs.

In 2006, a Japanese architecht Shigeru Ban made a version of the Stool 60 using a fabric that reacts to heat.
