by Lloyd Alter, Toronto on 08.26.07
The Emergency Stool is designed to transcend function and question furniture as object, art, or image. The Emergency stool is a laser cut panel of Baltic Birch plywood where each part is connected to each other creating a panel that can be displayed an image on the wall prepared to be but into action for an emergency by simply breaking the panel into it's individual parts. The laser etcher graphic provides international assembly instructions. This kiche design adds ingenuity and humor to modern furnishings creating a useful stool or side table without fasteners or the need of complex tools.
