Sheru Barstool

Overview

Sheru Barstool is a barstool with a backrest by EOOS for Walter Knoll, offered in two seat heights and covered in leather, fabric or a combination of both. The cover can be removed by skilled personnel.

Construction

The synthetic shell has cutouts with bands arranged in the shape of palm leaves, a construction known as chAIR technology. The upholstery can be a casual look, foam-moulded with a padded covering, or a formal look, foam-moulded with foam padding. Frames are pipe legs in bronze, black or chrome, or oiled solid wood legs with an aluminium frame.

A shell rethought with EOOS

Walter Knoll's press text says the development team and EOOS completely rethought the technology of a shell chair. The openings in the seat and back hold bands in the form of palm leaves, which give a springy feel when seated and also act as ventilation.

Made to be taken apart

The barstool is described as using minimal material for an upholstered chair. Cover and frame can be disassembled and recycled, and the materials can be separated after a long lifecycle and re-used separately.
