Step up with an attitude
A stepladder that is a chair, side table or universal piece of furniture all in one. Cabinet maker and product designer Thomas Schnur developed this poetic piece of furniture in 2019 as part of the Generation Köln/Werkraum Bregenzerwald cooperation. Invisible connectors make the seemingly simple construction possible. It stands on its own, does not impose, but can be used in a myriad of ways. A hybrid piece of furniture, solidly crafted of silver fir, ingeniously designed.
