Softy Stones - Sharp and hard looking Softy Stones surprises the user with its squashy inside. Inspiration comes from arctic nature, sparkling ice crystals and the idea to have a product for everyday use with something extra. Used materials are plywood and soft foam. The fabric is handprinted and the pattern is designed exactly for these products. The black one can be used as a normal bench and the other in many ways, as a seat or a huge pillow on the floor. Please, have a seat! Photo: Timo Karinen
