This stool blurs the line between sculptural object and functional piece of furniture. Each one of Hideki Takayama’s (Taka) pieces are sculptural yet never drift too far from their functional nature. He crafts his pieces with attention not only to form but also to how the piece will feel in the hand resulting in exquisite craftsmanship that you can see and touch. The stool is finished with a clear varnish accentuating the color and grain of the wood.
