TRAP Collection - steps and mini-stairs for diverse uses and users
2024 for Social Label
Social Label's mission is to create socio economic opportunities for disadvantaged persons in the ‘working world’ through design.
For Social Labels 10th anniversary, Ineke Hans designed a quirky, cheerful and multi-purpose collection for young and old, made with care at social workshop ‘de winkel die werkt’ (the shop that works) to take any step you want in your life.
All models are provided with festive, hefty dots by the makers. This gives them the opportunity to finish the design themselves and increases the pleasure of working and co-creating. Moreover, it gives each piece of furniture a cheerful touch and a personal signature.
The TRAP collection offers optimum diversity. You will find hybrid objects with ànd without handles: to sit on, to use as steps, as mini-desk, plant platform, side tables, or - for example - to hang your clothes on...
The TRAP-collection comes in pink with blue polka dots and for those who find that a bit too excessive, there are also models in moody black with caramel dots.
MODELS
klap-trap: a compact folding stepladder to bring the unreachable within reach and to store away after use.
step: a small step for adults, but a great step up for children. Also handy to quickly slide some books or magazines underneath
trip: a small and mobile step, side table, or childrens seat. For short trips indoors: quick and easy to move by its handle.
dress-up: a step with a support to safely take a step up, but also useful as a dressboy, inspired by a classic library step
plant-trap/desk-top: a small ‘working’desk when you are little, grows with you as a side table or plant stand or step for when you are older.
