Stools come in different shapes and sizes and are usually handy to carry around. Some are used as a side table, some for sitting, and some for placing decorative items. South Korea-based architecture studio Sukchulmok’s lead designer, Park Hyunhee has designed Chul-02 Cone Stool that is multifunctional, adjustable, and made entirely of steel.
The stool comprises of three conical tops that appear to be leaning against each other and is adjoined by three adjustable pointed legs. Moreover, connecting the legs and the top are three mechanical joints, crafted by Sukchulmok with the help of design studio, Object Luci. These well-crafted joineries pay homage to the exceptional three-level joint and mechanical form used in the Jean-Michel Wilmotte‘s MIDLAND Table.
Furthermore, the stool takes inspiration from the peg landscape lighting and is designed to be inserted in the ground for better support. As aforementioned, the Chul-02 Cone Stool is adjustable. The joints between the top and the base allow effortless adjustment on various surface.
It can be positioned upright by inserting it into the ground or it can be adjusted at various angles to place it firmly on hard surface. It is great for using as a side stool, but with its adjustable and flexible quality, you can sit on it too.

Made entirely of steel, it showcases the art of using a familiar industrial material and convert it into something useful and functional in various environments. The details and mechanical properties are conspicuous and tangible. You can closely inspect each element working together to make the stool perform seamlessly.
Chul-02 Cone Stool has no jagged edges, ensuring safety while sitting. The rather peculiar furniture is not a quintessential and challenges the traditional norms in stool making. The designer beautifully explores the relation between form, function, and material. The result is a furniture that is minimal, functional, aesthetic, and adapts to various settings.
