Many consumers have taken to incorporating plants into their space for decor and health purposes, so the 'Wild Stool' has been designed with this in mind. The simple furniture piece is constructed with a transparent base and a simple yet perfectly comfortable fabric-covered top cushion. The base functions as a terrarium that's ready to be incorporated with an array of plants and will put them right on display as a focal point.
The 'Wild Stool' is the design work of Jorge Herrera of the Jorge Herrera Studio in collaboration with Spain-based company Greenarea. The furniture piece highlights a biophilic form that harmonizes everyday living with the natural world and encourages plants to become an even more embedded part of the consumer home or office.
