# Stackable Spider Stools Alessandro Loschiavo's Apis Stool Looks Like It Could Crawl Up By Jessica Marcel | Published 2010-03-07 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/apis-stool References: [design-milk](http://design-milk.com/apis-stool-by-alessandro-loschiavo/) & [aliantedizioni.it](http://www.aliantedizioni.it/) The Apis Stool was designed by Alessandro Loschiavo. The stool is cleverly constructed from a [single metal bar](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fold-stool) that has been shaped to create three legs. The top of the stool is very simple, but it comes in [different colors for variety](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/edition-two). The Apis Stool is [stackable and practical](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bug-collection-1). The black legs of the Apis Stool can't help but be reminiscent of a spider, particularly when the stools are pictured in groups. Anyone with arachnophobia might be advised to go with something else. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.7/10 - Popularity: 9% | Activity: 34% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Stackable Furniture:** The Apis Stool's stackable design presents an opportunity for creating more space-efficient and versatile furniture. - **Minimalist Design:** The Apis Stool's simple design highlights the potential for creating stylish and functional furniture without any unnecessary additions. - **Metal Furniture:** The Apis Stool's metal construction indicates the potential for creating durable and trendy furniture pieces using similar materials. ### Who This Affects Most - **Furniture Design:** The Apis Stool's innovative design presents an opportunity for designing stylish and practical furniture pieces. - **Home Decor:** The Apis Stool's stackable and versatile design presents an opportunity for creating space-efficient and visually appealing decor for homes, offices, and other settings. - **Metalworking:** The Apis Stool's construction with a single metal bar highlights the potential for innovative and sustainable metalworking techniques that can be used in furniture and other industries. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Fan-Shaped Stackable Stool Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stool-concept.md) - [Highly Functional Stools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/loki-stool.md) - [Modular Collaboration Stool Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/butterfly-stool.md) - [Design-Forward Stackable Stools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stackable-stool.md) - [Wheeled Bright Stumpy Stools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stump-stool-1.md) - [Stackable Cork-Like Stools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/drum-stool-1.md) - [Historically Influenced Stool Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nick-beens.md) - [Lightweight Bar Stools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hodei-superlight.md) - [Multifaceted Geometric Stools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stackable-stools.md)
