Fransson – design Anna Herrmann and Lisa Jonsson

Gärsnäs asked us to design a stackable stool in a flat package that is visually sustainable. We have worked with the sensitivity of the hand as a central aspect of our design process. We have produced numerous small-scale models which we have turned and twisted, investigating the dimensions, angles and proportions. At the factory in Gärsnäs we have gained inspiration from craftsmen and engineers with an absolute understanding for craft skills and quality. Details and material encounters together with function form the foundation of the Fransson series of stools. The stool comes in various materials such as pine, beech and walnut, combined with leather or textile fabrics.
