Spindle Stools
2014
The Spindle Chair was inspired by a visit to Louis Kahn’s
Exeter Library. Designer Craig Bassam’s imagination was
ignited when he noticed the traditional utilitarian chair
juxtaposed against the powerful geometry of Kahn’s building.
Seduced by its elemental simplicity, Bassam wanted to offer
a new take on the classic piece, a descendent of the classic
English Windsor Chair. One first notices its weightless quality,
which Bassam achieved by using metal for the chair’s legs
and spindles, giving the illusion of two floating surfaces.
A counterpoint to the metal spindles is the chair’s timber
elements, including an ultra-comfortable ergonomic seat
carved from solid wood.
