CAPSTONE PROJECT
VAULT STOOL
The Vault Stool is a lightweight, woven carbon fiber stool. Using kagome, a Japanese triaxial weaving technique, the unique form of the Stool is the intersection of traditional techniques and modern materials. The Stool’s structure is reinforced by the curved edges which are reminiscent of vaulted arches found in architecture.
