Strut chair by Yağmur Köylü for Yet

Dezeen Showroom: Istanbul and London-based design studio Yet has launched a stackable aluminium seat informed by an everyday building product.

Designed by studio co-founder Yağmur Köylü, the Strut chair's 90-degree edges draw inspiration from angle profiles – L-shaped struts commonly used as a trim in construction.

Yet conceived the chair, which was unveiled in Milan last week, as a challenge to the common perception of aluminium as a cold and uncompromising material.

Its sturdy, industrial aesthetic is softened by a circular leather seating pad and a gently curving back support.

"Free from superfluous elements, Strut embodies the purity of purposeful design – where every line is intentional and every angle tells a story," said the studio.

"More than a chair, Strut is a spatial gesture. It listens to the rhythm of the room and subtly amplifies it, forging a dialogue between function, form and feeling."
