Pidät | Stop Doorstop by Studio Gorm
Introducing a revolutionary doorstop that surpasses the limitations of conventional designs. Unlike your ordinary doorstop, this cone-shaped innovation, made from recycled shoe soles, can be wedged from any side, providing enhanced functionality.
Design for a circular economy.
The doorstop is designed for easy assembly and disassembly. The flakes in the rubber come from recycled shoe soles. For the rope, the raw material comes from 100% up-cycled post-consumer waste plastic bottles, and it is coloured using a water-free dying process.
Packaging.
There is no label attached, and no packaging that needs to go to landfill. All of the information about the Stop doorstop is printed on a reusable cotton pouch.

Designers
'STOP' was designed by Oregon-based American designers John & Wonhee Arndt of STUDIO GORM. With backgrounds in sculpture and craft, they have a playful approach to materials that is a great match for Pidät. In their design work, they pay particular attention to culture, history and technology, and how objects evolve to fit the needs of modern life.
