Design by Tom Dixon, 2009. Released at the London Design Festival in 2009, the Tom Dixon's Offcut Stool transforms remnants of wood into stylish, useful seating. The stool's elementary form is the result of several innovations: the circular round seat makes clever use of curved offcuts (the wood closest to the bark that is removed when timber is sawn and planed for use); its construction requires no additional screws or glue; and the stool is flat packed for ease of delivery. Natural soaped finish.
