This rice husk stool has been designed by You-Hau Wu as a functional, eco-friendly seating solution that makes use of an agriculture waste product. The stool is characterized by its wavy form that's hollow on the inside with a series of cutouts to allow for clear sight lines. This gives the seating solution a decidedly airy feel, which is further enhanced with a padded upper section for providing just the right level of softness when sat on.
The rice husk stool maintains a sculpture-like design that would be right at home in a modern living space or office. The stool is achieved with natural materials that have been processed to give them a stronger profile to accommodate everyday use in a space.
