Nontalo, an ingenious stool where play, spontaneity and sustainability are in harmony, built with a compostable material made of olive pits designed together with Irene Martinez under de name Eneris Collective.
It's not just a stool. Nontalo is constructed from six modules – three P-shaped pieces that can be combined and positioned in different ways and three straight rods that hold them together, forming avariety of shapes from a three-legged stool to a bench seat and many alternatives in between.
From waste to product. The stool is made of a resistant and durable material that is also 100% compostable. It is Reolivar, a biomaterial made from olive pits and natural ingredients created by Naifactory LAB. This waste is put to good use, giving rise to a new natural wood that is easy to shape without the need to cut down trees to obtain it.
