The Harry seat is a new design from [Stockholm](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fragments)-based Massproductions. A curved lower piece of wood comes up on both sides and is met by a simple seat that slides into place. The Harry seat is a cross between [a stool and a bench](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/loki-stool) (for one).

Massproductions follows a long Swedish tradition of [simple minimalist furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/after-series). You can see more of Massproductions work (including the Harry seat) at their site.
