Aalto plant stands...sort of.  

Cool
Looks good with different heights.

By far the sweetest display of politely updated Aalto stools that I could ever imagine. Simply fab.

You've more money than I...
And more balls...
Or less respect...
I can't decide really.

Thanks to all that like them.
I don't believe they are authentic Aalto stools, so cutting them down was hopefully no sacrilege and at $3 per stool was easy on my pockets!
Next, to cut the other stools down just enough to fit under our coffee table.

Roger that!
I have a couple I bought from Target years back that don't look quite as good as yours. That said, I'd buy more if I could find them at that price and find as many uses as possible for them... as you're doing.
Very nice looking.

Not Real
Not real. The ply tops is a giveaway. I have a few Aalto stools kicking about that I use as plant stands. I prefer mine original height, as it brings the plants closer to the windows.

I like them.
There are enough of these in the world that a few can be modified -- in a way that the architect might well have done himself -- without the Earth tipping off its axis (it seems to me).
Well done !

Huh.
Just made me tilt my head a bit.
Even if it is a borrowed design, a knock-off, it still says 'stool' to me and always
has been quite nice the way they stack. Now it has become a bit of an insect.
No real purpose except to assist a child in brushing their teeth?
(i could expect that in a page of Dwell)
Or to pedestal a plant...
Still odd looking. Hmm.

I'm a bit hmmmmm too, I remem...
I'm a bit hmmmmm too, I remember getting a lecture on the porous nature of plastic finishes/coatings when studying, Unless the timber and adhesive in a lamination are good enough for outdoor use there will be trouble.
