Kids Adirondacks
Loll introduces two new chairs for kids. The Small is designed to fit kids from 6 to 12 years of age and the Extra Small will feel just-right for kids old enough to sit up until they are 6. Made from durable and washable high density polyethylene, these chairs are unaffected by birthday cake, finger paints, juice boxes, and mashed bananas. If only your kids were this easy to clean!

You don’t have to be short to enjoy a good stool. By popular demand we have added a few stools to our growing line of useful pieces!
Handy Stool
Sized appropriately for service, the Handy won’t take-up a lot of room but will always be ready to play. The small size and convenient hand-hold make it easy to carry.
Foot Stool
The Foot Stool is a great, durable piece for kids or adults who need a small seat for a particularly low-altitude task, or a bit of help reaching something higher up.
Tool Stool
Designed by Carter McGuyer for Loll Designs, the Tool Stool has all the utility and durability of the Foot Stool, plus a built-in basket that will hold anything from cleaning supplies and garden tools to bathroom trinkets.

“The Adirondack Revisited: Poolside or backyard, the Adirondack chair never goes out of style. No need to worry about splinters with this modern twist on the classic. Made from recycled plastic milk bottles, it won’t need repainting either”.

Green by Design
“The greening of design is being propelled by a whole new generation of designers for whom sustainable solutions are second nature. ‘Green designers are some of the most forward thinking,’ says [Josh] Dorfman, author of The Lazy Environmentalist and co-host of the Sirius Satellite Radio show of the same name… Loll Designs takes the idea of recycling one step beyond by creating classic Adirondack-style outdoor chairs from recycled post-consumer plastic.” |

Loll HQ
Loll finds its home in a freshly refurbished brownfield industrial site in Duluth, Minnesota. For nearly 80 years prior, a business manufactured concrete forms such as culverts, pilings, light posts and burial vaults. Petroleum contaminated soil, unused cement and tons of concrete objects were strewn around the 4 acre hilltop site when Loll purchased the unkempt facility they now fondly call Hawks Boots. With the aid of local architects David Salmela and Carly Coulson of Salmela Architect, the tired buildings were renovated with the addition of a modern open office plan. The facility now boasts amazing views of the St. Louis River valley and distant views of Lake Superior as well as taking in the surrounding boreal forest. Although the building is not a LEED certified project, concern for environmental design was a priority. Along with greening the brownfield site and reusing the existing structures, natural lighting and ventilation, low VOC materials, and passive solar heating were employed into the project. Landscaping is all natural vegetation and roadways were left pervious to maintain existing water runoff. The building doesn’t define our business, but in our case it has helped lead the way to where we are going.
