Triangeli
A birch stool for Furniture Design course (BA) / 2018.
Triangeli was displayed at the exhibition No Trace, at Aalto University Väre-building 22.11.-6.12.2018.
Triangle is a modern birch stool, that is made completely with wooden joints. No glues, varnishes, nails or screws.
The design language of the stool is inspired by the steel structures of bridges, which can be seen in the legs that merge together. The triangular structure makes the stool durable, light and easy to move.

Exhibition text:
“NO TRACE
Humans have inhabited the world for thousands of years, but little evidence is left of their way of living. Only in special circumstances some trace of their housing or everyday items can be found. They lived in harmony with the nature.
What are we leaving behind?
As furniture and spatial designer students we have focused on furniture. Even the things considered environment friendly often contain elements that are not. Wooden furniture is often joint with glues, varnishes, nails and screws, which will have a permanent impact on nature. Our focus in making these stools was that after they have reached their end it is safe to burn them or simply leave them outside and let nature do its thing. Technically we are not making anything new, rather taking a step back respecting the old way of life. The stools are combinations of old techniques and new form.”
