BENCH
Studio Instructor: John Frane
Project Collaborator: Philip Hwang
The design of the bench was influenced by a study on the material tectonics of brick. The vertical wooden blocks become the units of aggregation and the framework becomes the mortar that holds everything together. Using only notches and joints, the bench is able to structurally sustain itself without the use of any additional adhesive. The top half of the bench displays blocks that vary in height according to seating areas, and the bottom half features an undulating surface that only touches the ground where support is needed.
