Custom made long seater.
Sakura backed bench
Design: Thorbjörn AnderssonDescription
Although Sakura could have been made for one of the great landscape gardens of Japan, it was actually designed for parks and coastlines in the Western world. The backed version of this elegant bench is crafted from slats of varying widths that form a single curve, creating the seat and backrest in one unit. The legs are grouped in pairs that distribute the bench’s weight laterally rather than anchoring it to either side. Whether chosen for a park, an urban sidewalk or indoor space, Sakura lends an element of the exotic East to any setting.
Variations
The slats can be made in oiled teak, oak or alkyd oil enamel on pine. Please refer to the images below to see the customised versions available. A matching table is available upon request.
