The LOU stool: a creative and versatile object

Assembled in less than a minute, stackable, delivered to your home in just a few days, a stool, bedside table or even a small side table, the LOU stool is a creative and versatile object. From design to manufacturing, discover the creative process and the secrets behind the latest addition to the TIPTOE family.

Create a new object

“With the LOU stool, we wanted to design a new object while staying true to the values that make TIPTOE strong: efficient, colorful design, noble and durable materials, impeccable finishes, and 100% European manufacturing. The powder-coated steel legs and the work on color reinforce the brand’s visual identity without adopting the clamp concept of the TIPTOE table leg.”

Grégory Cibert, designer of the LOU stool

Why is it called LOU?

When the stool is disassembled, the three legs and the round seat form the word “LOU,” as explained below!

100% European manufacturing

We have always been committed to offering objects designed to stand the test of time, with impeccable finishes.

The LOU stool is made with the same care as TIPTOE table legs in exceptional family-run workshops in France and Europe. LOU’s solid oak and beech seats are machined in Brittany and hand-sanded for a truly unique finish on every piece. As with our tabletops, all our wood comes from sustainably managed forests.

Assembly in less than a minute

A playful assembly process with no tools required in less than a minute: the steel legs slot directly into the wooden seat and are secured with three screws.
