FOOKS House Stool Recover
As a wedding gift for Ben and Kylie I reupholstered this original Grant Featherston dressing room stool for their amazing Ernest Fooks house in Melbourne. Kangaroo leather with a FOOKS graphic, designed by Feride and me to suit the shape of the stool and sensitive to the period of the home. For good measure we included the happy skull saddle which is now hung in the house alongside some very nice works of art.
