Blu Dot Buddy Stool
A wise person once said that wood is good. Buddy is here to prove it. A molded ply back wraps to hug and gently kiss a curved wood seat. Solid wood legs provide a sturdy and elegant base while subtle wood dowel details keep it all feeling special.
Buddy was born from the desire to create a fresh-yet-familiar wood chair for both commercial and residential spaces. We began by building a full-scale prototype in our Minneapolis studio to work through visual details and comfort adjustments. The base was then refined to its simplest form, while retaining rigidity and strength for the rigors of commercial use. Finally, bent plywood was unconventionally juxtaposed against a solid wood base to create a design that is effortlessly au courant with a gentle nod to the past.

Blu Dot was founded in 1997 by designers John Christakos, Maurice Blanks, and Charlie Lazor. These two architects and one sculptor reunited after college, bonded by their mutual passion for creating beautiful modern lighting, interior and exterior furniture, storage, and accessories that are affordable and built to last. The business supports their “design habit” and desire to maintain control of the entire process, from product development to customer experience, in an attitude-free environment.
Everything BluDot makes and sells is designed in their Minneapolis studio. The goal has always been total collaboration, from design to materials, machines, packaging, and assembly. Their process includes seeking out and solving simple design problems. From there, a design brief is compiled to review the idea with the entire team so everyone is on board.
