by Fernando Mendes, 2004
The first piece by Fernando Mendes’ to be available on the market, the ‘Jake’ is named after the 4•year old boy from New York for whom it was originally designed, as his parents sought a ‘step stool’ for him to reach the bookshelves. The lateral pieces and seat fit into one another, recalling the form of a small carpentry bench. Remnants of freijó wood are used by the designer, so each stool has a unique color and identity. • Base structure made of solid Freijó wood • Made to order
