About the Item

In 1969, man landed on the moon in the LEM (Lunar Excursion Module). In 2000, as the new millennium began, the LEM stool was introduced and quickly became a hallmark of Lapalma's aesthetic. Similar in its weightlessness and lack of gravitational pull, the stool's design forms a strong connection with its surroundings. Just like the spacecraft, which couldn't carry any unnecessary burdens, this chair effortlessly integrated all necessary functions into a sleek and minimalist silhouette. Only the most crucial elements remained, leaving behind everything else on solid ground. The LEM bar stool, created by Shin & Tomoko Azumi in 1999 for Lapalma, is truly a timeless piece in the world of bar seats. It has a fixed foundation, and is perfect for sophisticated, energetic, and urban settings, allowing for a uniquely personalized look. It features a subtly bent wooden seat and a metal rail for users to comfortably place their feet. The adjustable seat height is between 66-79cm. Max total height is 86cm. The item shows little abrasion on the lower metal parts.
