SU Small Stool
The Emeco SU® Small Stool by Nendo translates the Navy chair's seat shape into a backless stool with an 18.5-inch seat height.
Cork, reclaimed oak and recycled-plastic seats pair with clear or black anodized aluminum legs or solid oak legs. The compact design follows the Japanese aesthetic of su, meaning plain or unadorned. Recycled-plastic seats with aluminum legs are suitable for outdoor use.
Every detail, considered.
