Curved Bench

The Curved Benches exploit the flexibility of wood to assimilate the curves of the body.

The juxtaposition of the curved plate with the vertical planes generates a slight encounter, marked by a linear shadow at its junction. The project seeks to dialogue with the Brazilian tradition of carpentry through a minimalist language
