"Flat-pack furniture is usually shorthand for budget compromises, cardboard boxes stuffed with dowels, and Allen keys that disappear the moment you need them. It is something you tolerate for convenience rather than admire, defined by getting furniture to your door cheaply rather than making you excited about assembly. The tension between wanting sculptural pieces and needing things that can actually ship and fit through narrow stairwells rarely gets resolved gracefully."
"Tide Stool treats flat-pack as a starting point for luxury instead of a constraint. Designed by Vinayak Syam for DreamDeadline Works and produced by House of Sach, it is built from toughened glass legs, precision 3D-printed joinery, and hand-finished upholstery. The structure rises from a flat kit into a flowing form, shaped by curves and loops rather than brute-force mass, with the name being very much intentional."
Tide Stool reimagines flat-pack furniture as a luxury object built from toughened glass legs, precision 3D-printed joinery, and hand-finished upholstery. Transparent glass fins fold and loop around a central axis, carrying load through geometry so strength derives from curved paths rather than thickness. Assembly transforms the kit into a visible structure as glass panels slot into 3D-printed nodes, making joints part of the visual language. The upholstered top is a soft disc available in over thirty colour finishes, offered in fabric and a Deep Sienna vegan leather option. The design prioritizes sculptural form while remaining shippable and adaptable to narrow spaces.
