Description

Normann Copenhagen's Stretch stool, designed by Simon Legald, is a multifunctional piece of furniture whose simple, solid shape is inspired by the material: the stool is made of thick pine planks. Typically for Legald, the characteristics of the material are celebrated instead of hidden, and the surface of the stool is dotted with knots typical of pine wood. Instead of a thick layer of paint, the stool is finished with a UV matt varnish, which allows the natural beauty of the material to shine. In addition to the surface patterns, it is typical for pine wood to patina over time and change colour into a beautiful honey-like tone.

The design of the Stretch stool is sturdy, durable and practical – you could also say uncomplicated and welcoming. It combines the best aspects of modern minimalism and more traditional rustic aesthetics, and is therefore easy to imagine in any kind of space. The stool can be used as an additional seat, as a bedside table, or even as a small side shelf for flower pots and decorative items.

Pine will naturally change color as it ages with your pale piece of furniture gradually maturing to a beautiful honey color over the course of several years.

Simon Legald

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.
