Taburett Plus by Lammhults founder Edvin Ståhl

Taburett Plus – An extension of an iconic design

Designed by Peter Andersson, Taburett Plus is a homage to the popular 282 stool created by Lammhults founder Edvin Ståhl in 1955 and reissued as Taburett in 2014.

Reflecting on the lasting relevance of this piece of Swedish design history, Andersson imagined a creative conversation with Ståhl as inspiration to extend the iconic design for a contemporary audience and tap into the founder’s industrious mindset.

The resulting chair’s seat and back are made from ABS plastic recycled from old refrigerator interiors, and furthermore, all materials in the chair, such as the steel frame and zinc details, can be separated for future recycling. The consumer-recycled ABS plastic used in Taburett Plus is a so-called mono-material. This means that it solely contains one type of plastic enabling the material to be recycled and reused in other plastic products once the chair´s lifespan has come to an end after decades of use.

The designer, Peter Andersson explains:
“It’s not always necessary to reinvent the wheel. Short-lived trends are not a sustainable way of making. You could say that Taburett Plus has taken nearly seven decades to evolve from its original starting point.”
