Seating Element 01 is a minimal stackable seating element created by Rotterdam-based designer Johan Viladrich.

SE01 is a stackable seating element in brushed and anodised aluminium. Its architectonic qualities emerge from a desire to reduce the structure of a stool to an absolute minimum. Here, two verticals are connected to one horizontal with stainless steel bolts, and it is only the angle of the verticals that ensures the 3-dimensional stability of the entire structure.

The stool was designed with the idea to use an entire rectangular aluminium profile of 200x20mm. One piece uses a fifth of the profile and when five pieces are placed sides to sides they form a pentagon. The stools can then be stacked onto one another and form various spatial compositions.

Timeless over trendy, few over many and plain over fancy - that's probably the most condensed way of putting into words what 'minimum' is about. 'Minimum' embraces the ideas of eliminating all the noise and focusing only on the essential form and function which leads to true freedom, simplicity, and a real sense.
