2019, KIP, Public Bench
as part of Keiji Takeuchi Design Office (Milan, Italy)

This bench was originally designed for the Social Seating project, curated by Jasper Morrison for the first Art & Design Biennale in Fiskars Village, Finland. The goal was to create a bench that pays tribute to nature and the atmosphere of the site. Keiji Takeuchi envisioned a piece so natural and timeless that it would feel as if it had always belonged there. To achieve this, the bench needed a form that was both graceful and inviting.
