toru-ribaudi-poni-p PONY

Inspired by riding horses. Dreaming of becoming a horse –maybe a centaur. The Pony stool brings the user and the object itself together, creating a whole, a single meaning. This gives a symbolic content for its form and function.

This minimalistic beauty is born straight from Jordi Ribaudí’s soul, in Igualada, Barcelona. The town has strong roots in the local leather industry, and the company’s headquarters is to be found in a restored nineteenth century tannery.
