Description

Normann Copenhagen's Fyr stool boasts an elegantly simple design crafted from solid pine wood. Designed by Yuchen Wu, the stool has an adaptable, multifunctional construction that makes it perfect for a variety of functions from extra seating to a side or display table.

The name of the stool, Fyr, is a play on the Danish word for pine, highlighting both the distinctiveness and sturdiness of the material. Fyr has flawlessly balanced structure that radiates strength and beauty, combining simple geometric shapes in a pleasant yet intriguing way. Like Yuchen says:

“When designing something as simple as a stool, the challenge is to make it uncomplicated and practical, but still interesting. The result is a well-balanced combination of sturdiness, simplicity and detail, that at the same time allows the pine material to take center stage.”

Yuchen Wu

Taiwanese designer Yuchen Wu worked in a design agency in Taiwan after completing her studies, where she was exposed to a variety of design projects, ultimately finding her passion for designing furniture and accessories. Yuchen made the decision to investigate the sector internationally in an effort to gather expertise and eventually found herself in Denmark working as an in-house designer at Normann Copenhagen.

A big source of inspiration for Yuchen's creative work is her childhood in Taiwan's lovely countryside, which is surrounded by stunning natural features including the sea and mountains. Achieving a healthy balance between aesthetics and usefulness is at the heart of Yuchen's design philosophy. Her goal is to produce designs that are both functional for daily usage and infused with beauty and poetry. Furthermore, Yuchen places a high priority on sustainability in her design work.
