Wiggle stool by Frank Gehry for Vitra. Designed by the renowned architect Frank Gehry, the Wiggle stool is part of the Easy Edges' furniture series - a collection comprising 13 pieces of furniture made from cardboard.

One day, he decided to play with the material, cutting it into shapes with a hand saw and a pocket knife. He discovered that if he layered the cardboard repeatedly in alternate directions, he could create sturdy and fluid forms from the everyday shipping material.The result is an astonishingly robust piece of furniture with a unique silhouette and texture.
