This fun little seat is designed for a home décor brand- Burel Mountain Originals by the Portuguese Designer Soraia Gomes Teixeira.

The designer’s objective was to revitalize the ordinary seating object through the power of sound.

The accordion-shaped cushion forewarns the seater to expect a sound as they press it or sit on it. Soraia mentions, “[The] Xia Stool is a fun object that makes people smile and unleashes their imagination.”

Although the cushion of the stool shapes like an accordion that acts as a visual indication, it is still extraordinarily amusing and enjoyable to actually have a seat and emitting a pleasant sound as you sit down.

Material Palette

The stool is made from Burel fabric, wood, and a hundred percent Pure Sheep Wool.

Each Xia stool contains an old metallic lamiré, producing a high-pitched note A used to tune the instruments in philharmonic bands.
