What Does 3ones Mean?

The simplest, stable structure is a set of three sticks bound at one end. It’s the model for this camping chair I’d never seen until now. It’s how tee-pees are built (more or less). It’s also the basic design of this beautiful stool:

3ones the name is based on three principles of design:

  1. Simplicity
  2. Scalability
  3. Stability

When we build stuff, we try to keep in mind how we can make it more simple, more scalable and more stable all the time. It’s our guiding principle. There you have them, our 3ones.
