Swedish designers Charlotte Ryberg and Johanna Strand created their Whatchawant stool as a fun piece of furniture that would inspire the imagination. They built this timeless piece, made of plywood, and containing no screws or superflous parts, with an eye on sustainability and a desire to do away with the “wear out then throw out” mentality often coupled with today’s mainstream furniture. Meant to last for generations, this modern spin on a rocking horse is destined to become a classic.
