Plopp stool

The PLOPP stool is an original, iconic object made in FiDU. It is a flagship of Zieta Studio and a symbol of Oskar Zięta’s research into the properties and possibilities of metal.///Description
The “Polish Air-Pumped Folk Object” proves how the artistic aspects of the design can be summarised in highly advanced engineering forms. Winner of the Red Dot Design Award 2008, the German Design Council Award 2008, and the Forum AID Award 2009. PLOPP is a manifesto of the FiDU technology and the “controlled loss of control” process. Two ultra-thin steel sheets are welded together around their edges and inflated under high pressure, deforming a 2.5D flat form into a 3D object.
