Softseating fanning stool + bench is a furnishing made from paper or textile, designed by Stephanie Forsythe and Todd MacAllen of molo in 2003 and released in 2006. Internal honeycomb geometry allows the elements to store compressed, and then fan open to form seats and tables. The paper or textile materials take on flexibility and strength through an ordered, honeycomb geometry. Depending on the number of layers, the honeycomb creates stools and benches of various sizes. When folded, the furniture can be stored like a book.
