The SESC Pompéia Stool by Lina Bo Bardi, designed in 1982 for the iconic SESC Pompéia leisure center in São Paulo, this stool is a masterpiece of rationalist design. It is defined by its radical simplicity and geometric precision, echoing the industrial spirit of the landmark it was created for.
Lina Bo Bardi (1914–1992) was a legendary Italian-born Brazilian architect. Her work focused on stripping away unnecessary ornament to highlight the essential, often using humble materials to create profound architectural statements.
Collectors prize this stool for its "anti-design" philosophy. Crafted in Pine wood, it intentionally avoids the traditional luxury of hardwoods to celebrate raw, honest materiality.
