Cover barstool – Muuto

The Cover stools are the latest addition to the eponymous collection designed by Thomas Bentzen in 2013, which included a range of chairs with and without armrests, as well as a lounge chair.

With the Cover series, Thomas Bentzen has endeavored to give a contemporary version to the classic wooden seat by exploiting both the possibilities opened up by technical progress and traditional Scandinavian craftsmanship.

Cover stools are made of wood, with an environmentally-friendly water-based lacquer. The curved back and seat are in veneer, while its base and legs are in solid oak. Available with wooden, fabric or leather seat.

Thomas Bentzen, on his design: « The Cover Bar & Counter Stool sprung from a desire to bring a modern perspective to the traditional wooden bar seat. I wanted for it to have a crisp and contemporary expression through its light plywood material, paired with the solid and grounded sentiment of its frame and base in solid wood. With its tall and curved backrest that folds gently around the frame alongside the warmth of its wooden materiality, the Cover Bar & Counter Stool has the comfort required for people to be seated for hours on while translating the ideas of Scandinavian craftsmanship into a modern design language. »
