The LAUSANNE bench

Description

Fully hand made, using local materials, the bench is available in walnut wood (dark wood as shown in the photo) or ash (light wood) both sourced in the canton of Vaud, Switzerland.

The wood is finished with a 100% natural wax, containing no harmful products for the environment, the craftsman or the end user.

The seat is hand woven with cotton cord for a soft and natural touch. The cotton is also waxed  for optimal resistance to friction and for ease of cleaning. Its waxing finish is also natural, made from potato starch, for a fully biodegradable piece of furniture.

Entirely made in Switzerland. The production is small scale and per order. Some pieces are readily available in some partner shops (list at the bottom of the page).

Inspiration

With a strong will for building sustainable furniture and influenced by Scandinavian design, not only for its style but also for its quality, durability and functionality, the Lausanne bench offers great comfort thanks to the flexibility of its woven seat.

The woven pattern is inspired by ethnic patterns whose geometry blends perfectly with the geometric structure of the bench. Acknowledging the past and tradition of craftsmanship coupled with a contemporary style.
