There has always been a playful, futuristic element to Karim Rashid’s designs and the Woopy and Snoop seats are very child-like. Cute, simple and colorful, they would fit perfectly into a child’s play area if they weren’t sized for a grown up.
Designed for furniture manufacturer B-LINE, the Woopy and Snoop seats feature rather clever designs. While the Woppy seat is pretty standard, it's sweeping lines offer a sleek and comforting look. It is available in two versions: a regular chair and a higher bar stool. The Snoop, however, is not just a stool; it can also store magazines as well as stack up into a bookshelf.
