Athens Bench

This is my participation at the athens bench mark international competition for the next Athens bench. The design is composed of two basic elements: a metal profile that acts as the load bearing structure, and the wooden planks tha act as the seat. The idea was to design the metal profile in a way that gives the impression that the seat is floating above the ground. Also by bolting the profiles at the middle of the planks enhances the impression of the floating seat and lets the bench to expand (by adding other benches horizontaly or verticaly and custom finnishing the planks accordingly) to a continuous urban furniture creating urban living rooms.
