From Simple Tree Logs to Contemporary Dining Chairs, Modern Furniture Design

Rocks and tree logs are the first stools a man invented. Today fallen tree trunks inspire modern furniture design, room decorating, recycling and conservation ideas.

Turned vertically, small tree trunk pieces were first wood stools, that offered a better option for rest and more comfortable higher position for a fast start before running away. The first problem of wood stools have been solved with animal skins, that were used as upholstery fabrics.
