Sushi Bench

Hungarian designer Gabor Jutasi emailed me about his new creation, the Sushi Bench. Made of plywood and a water- and UV-proof, scratch resistant coating, this graceful curve of a bench is good for indoors or out.

The minimal bench has a purposeful Asian design theme to it. Jutasi "took inspiration from dry gardens of Shunmyo Masuno. In bustling cities, these little gardens, sanctuaries, roof terraces, and spas offer a heaven of peace, and a place for spiritual purification." I can see this perfectly in a little meditation spot.

Gabor Jutasi is currently taking direct orders for the bench, but is working to get worldwide distribution. It is available in white, black, and red - I'll take mine in black.
