Intro to Furniture & Lighting Design: Ulmer Stool Revisited


The Ulmer Hocker Stool is one of the very first product of the Ulm School of Design which shares the Bauhaus’ design ethics and methodology. The Ulmer stool displays minimalistic and multifunctional design.

This redesigned Ulmer stool deliver the same minimalistic approach with contemporary twist. It is made out of Tasmanian Oak and oiled with matt sheen finish for a modern feel. Box joint or modern dovetail, as well as mortise and tenon joint were used to combine the stool to achieve the desired durability and strength. Filleted abstract holes  are done for an organic-contemporary look.
The redesigned Ulmer Hooker Stool retained its multi-functionality as stool, modular book or tools shelf and a side table. It displays a more contemporary aesthetics without compromising the element of the Bauhaus design.
