German design studio OUT unveils its vibrant [Fels](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/monochromatic-stool) stool that has a compact design language and is perfect for accenting a living space in a contemporary language. Due to the construction, it is also very portable and versatile for many reasons. It is made from wood, which honors a sustainable design whilst also looking like it is carved from stone. The dynamic structure also allows it to [function as a side table](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/runda-tables).

OUT speaks about the new design, noting that “Fels is a form study that requires a special amount of time and sensitivity in the production process. As in sculpture, the associative form is gradually worked out of the material.” The brand says that Fels was created by combining three major elements – nature, craftsmanship, and “the Berlin State of Mind”.
