Oom Stool by Matthew Weatherly for Brayton International

We'd use one of these as a freestanding landing strip. It's the Oom Stool by Matthew Weatherly for Brayton International, a branch of Steelcase...

The Oom Stool is a comfy little poof of a surface that would work well for perching and putting shoes. The back is denoted with a vertical coat rack of solid maple with walnut inlay. Choose from leather or Design Tex fabric for upholstery. And, the Oom sits on casters, making the friendly freestanding landing strip mobile, too.

That looks like it could hurt somebody.

Looks like an unattractive way to impale myself!

The craftsmanship of the handle, and the fact that the handle was designed for a dual purpose (mobility coat rack) makes me love it.

Sure, it looks a little clunky here, but in the right fabric I think it'd be great.

If we add a fog machine to the mix, these could definitely be used as horses in Madison Elementary School's stage remake of "Conan the Barbarian".

What?

Well it's a Montessori school, so they do avant garde things like this all the time.
