Featuring at this year’s fair will be the Valencia Stool, designed by Patricia Urquiola. Originally conceived as a response to the DANA storm in their homeland, Valencia, it was created with a clear idea: that design can aslo serve as a tool for help, reflection, and reconstruction. All proceeds from the sale of the Valencia Stool will now be donated to support communities affected by natural disasters worldwide, including those recently impacted by the severe floods in Texas.
