BOLD SHKAM is a contemporary reinterpretation of the traditional Albanian shkam; a simple wooden stool deeply rooted in everyday life, craftsmanship, and collective memory. Designed by SHAPE & SHADE, the chair transforms this familiar object into a sculptural and multifunctional piece that balances heritage with contemporary design. Crafted from layered plywood and available in vibrant colors, BOLD SHKAM can function as a chair, side table, or standalone design object. Its minimalist geometry, playful character, and emotional connection to local culture make it suitable for both residential and public spaces.More than a piece of furniture, BOLD SHKAM is a celebration of identity, simplicity, and the idea that local stories can inspire globally relevant design.
