Low res elephant
by Richard Hutten
Description
The Low res elephant is both a stool and a decoration object at the same time. The playful design of Low res elephant is typical of Hutten’s style. This product is available with or without light.When Richard Hutten was busy furnishing a room 25 metres in height as a nursery, he took his inspiration from the objects he came across in the bedroom of his own two sons. In the midst of all their toys, he found a small white toy elephant, which fascinated him. He liked it so much that he set to work immediately. Hutten magnified it and assigned it the simultaneous function of lamp and stool. If you ask Hutten what the strength of this design is, he will reply: ‘It will cheer you up.’
