Cafe Stool

The Cafe Stool, made for Cafe Niko, is a stainless steel stool defined by clean lines, durability, and understated elegance. Designed for everyday use, its simple form is finished with engraved NJ logos, adding a subtle signature detail to the piece. The Pick Up Line is our out-of-office flirt. The line presents a broad collection of design that we can’t take full credit for but wish to engage/but can’t take our eyes off. The Pickups are found products, we find to be good but: overlooked, forgotten, misunderstood, inimitable or backed by a production-setup too intelligent to be competed with. No need to double perfect, if perfect can be borrowed. Like assisted readymades, these products are modified prefabrications.In contrast to common readymade praxis the purpose is not to isolate the products from their intended use, but to twist and expand the context of how and where. These lucky coin Pickups are designated, modified and curated by NIKO JUNE as a cabinet of curiosity that doesn’t care for categories and fills up as a good mess of good stuff the world already has to offer. Expect anything from antiques to deadstock products.
