Forged Steel Stool by Lyle and Umbach from Holly Hunt
“The chicest thing I’ve ever seen,” Richard Mishaan raves. “You can appreciate the artisan’s hand in the forged-metal frame, which recalls Giacometti.” He also calls the cushioned seat “supercomfortable.” Mishaan pictures a series of these simple forms lined up in a sophisticated urban apartment.
