Made possible by exploring innovative developments in moulded plywood techniques, Iskos-Berlin’s Soft Edge series blends strong curves with extreme lightness to create a three-dimensionality that is not normally possible with 2D plywood. All the edges of the ultra-thin, soft-formed seats are bent away from the body, designed to optimise human-centric comfort for constant shifting and movement. This shorter stool version features solid wooden legs that create an expression of seamless symmetry and stability. Its strength and functionality ensure years of everyday use in a wide range of public and private environments – from corporate spaces and cafés to home environments. Also available with upholstered seat.

Iskos & Berlin Design
ISKOS & BERLIN Design is a partnership of Boris Berlin and Aleksej Iskos.
The company works within the fields of industrial, furniture and graphic design. The firm was only established in late 2010, but Boris and Aleksej have been working together for a number of years. In 1987, Boris co-founded Komplot Design, where Aleksej was employed as an assistant for more than 11 years. This long and fruitful cooperation has allowed them to develop a shared philosophy of design. In their own words:
“We see design as an art of storytelling. This story is normally quite complex, consisting of semantics, morphology, materiality, technology of objects and many other elements. But the clearer your story is, the more likely people are to understand it. The more surprising you make your story, the more likely they are to remember it. And finally the more you make people smile, the more likely they are to love it!
Our aim is to retain the best elements of Komplot’s philosophy of design and to make them sharper, clearer and more precise.
At ISKOS — BERLIN, we look to experiment with new technologies and materials, to explore their impact on everyday objects.
These objects have their own individual histories, which are also part of wider narratives of the way we interacting and thinking with things. By allowing the materials to choose their own direction, to speak for themselves, we try to bring a novel twist to this ongoing (and unending) story”
