INSPIRATION: For thousands of years people have been surrounding by symbols. Such as symbols of water, fire, earth, air, femininity and masculinity, state and religious symbols etc. Separate group of symbols is occupied by symbols of leadership and success.

UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Refined silhouette of the bar stool most closely resembles the letter "A". Where the legs are side lines and the footrest is crossing middle line. The stool is light in weight and easy to manufacture yet very strong. The "A"stool has particular construction with metal core what allows the bar stool to have slender legs with reliable durability and sustainability.

RESEARCH ABSTRACT: Since the stool supposed to be designed gracefully and elegantly I had a task to find combination of appropriate materials and technical solutions that would allow me to get planned look of the stool and great strength. To do that I built several mockups and found suitable type of wood and worked out metal construction.
CHALLENGE: The greatest challenge was that with the help of classic joinery it is impossible to get planned look and strength of the bar stool. Therefore the solution was to design aluminium core which plays not only constructive role but decorative as well in the form of brackets holding the seat.
