Design: 2006, launched: 2008
Description:
A stray piece of driftwood initiated the design for the Drift bench. The naturally formed fluid lines of that found object provided inspiration for Amanda Leveteкs exercises in complex curves, angles and subtracted spaces.
The Drift bench is an extremely sculptural design whose function, as a seating object, is clear although the primary concern for Levete has been translating her organic, highly sensual architectural language into a condensed form. This cast concrete version of the bench is suitable for permanent outdoor use and creates visually exciting solutions for public seating either as part of landscaped outdoor environments such as parks and shopping centres, or garden terraces.
