Nontalo

Irene Segarra and Irene Martínez

Nontalo is an ingenious stool where play, spontaneity and sustainability are in harmony. It is made of a compostable material from olive pits. Thanks to its modularity, the stool can be combined and expanded to become a chair, bench or other figures according to the user's creativity.

From waste to product

This stool is made of a strong and durable material that is also easily compostable, from olive pits and environmentally friendly natural composites. This waste is put to good use in the form of a new natural wood that is easy to shape. Through its rough and organic texture, it creates a natural and mediterranean atmosphere.

Spontaneous design

The organic and modular shape of this stool means that its structure can be expanded and combined to become a chair, bench or other abstract shapes where play, imagination and the user's need come together. This clever design allows two designs and six interlocking modules to form this ingenious seat.

Monomaterial

Apart from the material and shape, this seat is made of a single material, so there is no need for connecting elements. This facilitates the production and, above all, recycling and the end of the product's life. The result is a comfortable, soft and warm design object.
