'Threefold' Stool as an Idea of Progress
This simple-looking and small, but the most innovative in technology of creation stool is the work of French designer Florent Coirier. The stool is named the "threefold" that means “triple” or “three times” because of the process of technology. The aim of the project is to promote the idea of progress and economy of production. The whole construction is made of one element but it is repeated many times just like as a fractals system. The laser is used for cutting out the steel sheet of 2mm thick and then folding program creates the same angle folds for all bends. So the final construction is assembled without welding.

Standing Lamp by Floris Wubben
This unique standing lamp, designed by floris wubben from Netherland has been easily transformed from a tree branch. The natural view was saved by minimal modifications with a real wood. At the bottom of the lamp the branch is split into three parts giving stability to the construction. Lamp-shade is made of the bark which is almost totally pealed from the branch and twisted in a needed form in tension. The final form of the lamp depends on the natural branch's form. So the final product is a unique result of the design work.The lamp is very good for a cottage or country house.
