PRODUCT STORY: URIBO STOOLS Vol.1
With their dual traditional background, Stine Gam and Enrico Fratesi draw on the classic Danish furniture and craft tradition as well as the classic Italian intellectual and conceptual approach. From this cross-cultural substrate they create furniture that respectfully reflects tradition while also featuring unique embedded stories, symbols and associations, often expressed in a minimalist idiom. Building on this unique blend of tradition and innovation, GamFratesi brings their vision to life in a new stool series, embodying both simplicity and artistry.
The new stool series designed by GamFratesi reimagines the iconic backrest of Sori Yanagi Chair into the seat itself. The result is a remarkably simple yet striking piece of furniture that exudes a modern aesthetic.
"At the heart of the stool is a commitment to simplicity and beauty," say GamFratesi. "We were inspired by the wood bending techniques of the manufacturer and sought to create a stool that celebrates the inherent beauty of this craftsmanship.”

The manufacturer of the stools has specialized in wood bending for decades. Bending such large and long pieces of wood requires a high level of craftsmanship and expertise, including a deep understanding of wood properties, precise temperature control, and the ability to manipulate materials without compromising their integrity. This skillful approach ensures that each piece maintains its strength and aesthetic appeal while achieving the desired curves and shapes.
