Shark Bar Stool/Miura stool

The Miura stool features a faceted seat that maintains a pleasing visual connection to the raked vertical supports. It exemplifies Grcic's approach: its angular structure makes it extremely stable but, because it is made from a single piece of fibreglass-reinforced polypropylene, it flexes comfortably. Miura's materials and shape are heavily informed by the modern industrial production process. Miura is made of reinforced polypropylene (2,5 times stronger than aluminium) produced (injected) in one block. The innovative injecting technology as well as the requirement to develop a barstool for contract and domestic environments, has lead to the characteristic form of Miura. Optically this stackable stool has a truly dynamic form, of which construction and ergonomics are developing into a powerful and expressive harmony.
