Dipped in Elegance & Functionality, Butterfly Stool is Reminiscent of Sori Yanagi’s Classic

Simple yet beautiful!

Whenever a company or a designer drops a furniture design dubbed ‘Butterfly Stool,’ critics amass and start drawing comparisons with the all-time classic Sori Yanagi’s Butterfly Stool. To some extent, the name Butterfly Stool holds a legacy; and for the legacy to sustain, your reiteration of the design has to be near perfect.

We saw Philip Starck doing the same with his Alla Occasional Table (which raised many eyebrows). Now, Australia-based company Nude Modular in partnership with Naco Design took it upon itself to design a stool that is built to accommodate one individual.

Made of Birch bent plywood, the stool has three key elements: two shells and a stretcher joining them. Just like the original Butterfly stool, the gently curving silhouette of the twin seat shells is reminiscent of a butterfly’s wings, hence the name. The Butterfly Stool is part of a modular furniture collection designed by Billy Hietanen at Nude Modular.

“Made to order in Melbourne, this fun and versatile piece embodies our commitment to supporting local designers through collaboration. Nude Modular started with the idea to create a furniture product that would act like Lego, in the sense that one universal piece would be the main structural element in multiple configurations,” states the company.

The crux of the design is that it allows users to opt for a different shell color and helps them easily break the furniture down into stackable pieces. “The pieces are pressed and machined in a factory whilst I finish each piece by hand,” states Billy who is the designer behind the project.

Overall, the piece looks elegant, functional, and most importantly easy to store. Costing $396, it is available for purchase at Naco Design’s official website.
