Welcome
at the site of Tike Design - Footstools.
Furniture
in a different dimension, created by Tike with the idea
that a footstools can be much more than a simple low bench
on four legs. Tike’s footstools are the result of
her life experiences, her dreams, her desires. That’s
why they are as characteristic as Tike is herself.
They all have their own story! A story as fascinating
as a piece of art. Tike’s
footstools are designed and made by hand in her own workshop.
Every
design is unique, with a characteristic of its own. |

Every creation
is inspired by the upholstery materials she gathers from
every corner of the world; luminous plastic from the States,
finished off with a raffia fringe from London. Tight little
legs discovered in Italy. That’s how a contemporary
bench with a tense radiation is born.
Many times she creates benches which are technically almost
impossible to realize. Tike loves the challenge. She experiments
as long as it takes. Apart from realizing her own ideas
Tike likes the challenge of making someone else’s
dreams come true.
Tike’s
footstools are made out off leather, silk, imitation leather,
wool, velvet, etc. Some are finished off with plastic
covers. The legs are made from various materials: cow
bones, wood, steel or beech stumps.
