玄関スツール

Planning , Product Design

札幌刑務所(法務省)



狭い玄関スペースでの使用を想定したスツールです。通常より座面が高く、立ち上がりや靴の脱ぎ履きがしやすい設計。半円状の座面は奥行きを浅く、また脚に靴べらを一体化させ省スペースに。マグネット式のカチッと心地よい感覚で、片手で簡単に着脱可能。柔らかい形状が玄関の雰囲気を和らげます。

制作の背景には、担当デザイナーの足の悪い義母が玄関壁の座面に座りながら靴を履いている風景を、いつも見ていたことに起因します。そこで、アパートなど狭い玄関スペースでも設置できることに特化した、コンパクトなスツールをコンセプトに制作に至りました。さまざまなアイデアを盛り込みながらも無駄を削ぎ落としたサイズ感で、置き場所を選ばないことが魅力の商品です。

This stool is designed for use in narrow entrance spaces. The seat is higher than usual, making it easy to stand up and put on/off shoes. The semi-circular seat is shallow, and the shoehorn is integrated into the leg to save space. The magnetic design allows for easy one-handed attachment and removal with a comfortable clicking sensation. The soft shape softens the atmosphere of the entranceway.


The background of this product came from the designer's mother-in-law, who had a limp, and who always saw her putting on her shoes while sitting on the seat on the entrance wall. This led us to the concept of a compact stool specially designed to be installed even in small entrance spaces such as apartments. The size of this product, which incorporates a variety of ideas but with minimal waste, makes it an attractive product that can be placed in any location.
