Related tray
A high-lipped Chap Tray rests on the stool and additional trays can be stored below the seat.
Story
A deliberately generic object
Vitra describes Chap as familiar because it resembles both a small four-legged stool and a side table. Grcic avoids fixing the design to one function.
Movement and storage
Its low weight and stackability allow Chap to be moved into meetings or workshops, then stored again. The separate tray adds a contained surface.
