Circa bar stool, 75 cm, black steel - black aluminium
Description
Normann Copenhagen's Circa is a minimalist and timeless bar stool consisting of a slender steel tube frame and a black lacquered aluminium seat. Designed by Simon Legald, the stool gets its name from the round elements: the circular shape is repeated in the seat, the rounded footrest as well as the hole in the middle of the seat, which makes it easy to carry the stool from one place to another. The classic but contemporary Circa bar stool fits well next to the kitchen island, around the dining table or as extra seating for surprise guests.

Simon Legald (b. 1986) is a Danish designer and the head designer of Normann Copenhagen. Having graduated from the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts in 2012, Legald began his long and prolific collaboration with Normann Copenhagen soon after graduating. In Legald’s work, craft traditions meet industrial processes, and his style is marked by a modern simplicity in which function and visual aesthetics are kept in careful balance.
One of Legald’s best-known works is the Form chair collection, which was honoured with the iF Design Award in 2016.
Simon Legald – clear forms and honest materials
The Danish designer Simon Legald is known for his clear, purposeful design language and his use of genuine, honest materials.
Legald graduated from the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts in 2012 and rose quickly to international renown through his collaboration with Normann Copenhagen. Today, he works as the company’s Head of Design.
At the meeting point of craft and industrial production
For Legald, design is not primarily self-expression but a way to solve practical needs in a clear and aesthetically pleasing way. His design shows a strong interest in the properties of materials and in how the structure of a product can be part of its visual appearance.
In Legald’s work, the meeting point of craft and industrial manufacture is a central starting point: structural solutions are not hidden away but brought in as part of the product’s appearance.
Furniture and objects for modern everyday life
Legald has designed everything from small everyday objects to extensive furniture collections, but regardless of scale, the same idea of clarity and balance recurs throughout his work.
Among his best-known works, the Form chair series was honoured in 2016 with the iF Design Award and a Special Mention in the German Design Award competition.
