The Principessa Stool – A new design in HIMACS with a playful and versatile spirit

The innovative impulse of Umberto Caretta and the excellence of HIMACS solid surface come together beautifully in the form of the Principessa Stool, a characterful object that instantly impresses with its fluid lines, ergonomic silhouette and playfulness with colour, light and shadow.

Versatility is the watchword of this “space age” inspired furniture which is capable of adapting to multiple roles, and where every detail reflects a design vision that is at once sculptural and functional. Destined for design nobility, the Principessa Stool serves equally well as a charming seating option or as a convenient side table. Its multifunctional nature makes it perfect for any living or working space, and for indoor or outdoor use, inviting spontaneous moments of connection.

To produce the graceful, flowing curves that so strongly define the character of the Principessa Stool, a material capable of being moulded into extreme, yet ergonomic shapes without sacrificing strength or surface uniformity was needed. HIMACS met this requirement with its advanced Ultra-Thermoforming Alpine White formula: a special solution designed for such exacting specifications, with superior thermoplastic properties that ensure a durable, luminous and immaculate finish, while enabling pronounced curvatures.

The structure of this versatile piece of furniture comprises four 12 mm thick slabs which are thermoformed prior to assembly, ensuring a continuous geometry that enhances its sculptural DNA.

Ultra-Thermoforming Alpine White, with its resistance to water and atmospheric agents, also allows the Principessa Stool to “live outdoors”, making it a desirable accessory for gardens, terraces and poolside areas. This special formula, part of the HIMACS Advanced Series, is also a responsible choice with enhanced sustainability, containing 8% SCS-certified recycled material.

The Principessa Stool is further distinguished by its eye-catching colour combinations. The pure exterior in HIMACS Ultra-Thermoforming Alpine White can be paired with a choice of three deep, rich primary shades painted to the interior of the stool in Earth, Olive or Sunshine, allowing for creative colour harmonies and contrasts and enriching any space with a touch of lively personality.

Conveniently integrated carrying handles add to the elegant details of this design, which is surely destined for iconic status.
