This set of two Obligo stools, footstools, side tables, or stackable furniture was designed by Von Robinson for Moroso. The design is characterized by striking, sculptural forms featuring large round cutouts that create an airy and playful effect. The objects are crafted from sturdy white plastic, making them both durable and versatile. The white color emphasizes the clean, geometric lines of the design. The stools are marked on the inside with 'Obligo by Von Robinson for Moroso', confirming their authenticity. The set is in good condition with characteristic signs of use consistent with their age. The original finish has been preserved, contributing to the authentic appearance of these design pieces. Unfortunately, the (seat) tray is missing, but it may still be available for purchase or can be repaired by a DIY enthusiast. These versatile objects can serve as stools, footstools, side tables, or even as decorative sculptures in a modern or eclectic interior. They come into their own particularly well in spaces where their unique design can draw attention, such as a living room, studio, or creative workspace. Von Robinson is an American industrial designer and design educator. He grew up in Indianapolis, Indiana. He went to college with the idea of perhaps becoming an architect, but his studies did not exactly go smoothly. A major turning point came from something very mundane: an old chair he found at an antique shop. He discovered that a well-designed object evokes something in people. This sparked the idea to become an industrial designer. He is versatile, as he is also a musician, painter, and writer.
