Nao Iwamatsu's CORNICE stacking stool, showcased at SaloneSatellite 2025, combines 'Narrative Minimalism' with structural rhythm. The stool, made from slender repurposed wood offcuts, draws design inspirations from both Western decorative cornices and traditional Japanese temple beam structures. Its unique stepped shape, which maintains a sculptural presence when stacked, offers both a seating option and a side table. With a commitment to material efficiency, the design uses 13mm wooden pieces bonded with domino joints, facilitating flat-pack shipping and enhancing transport efficiency. Variants in oak and other woods are available, catering to diverse interior styles.
