The Origami Bench, model 02.460, is a striking example of contemporary urban furniture, blending aesthetics with functionality. Designed by the renowned Filip Babiarz, this bench forms part of the Modern product line and stands out for its precise, geometric lines and robust engineering. The bench is aptly named for its visual similarity to the Japanese art of paper folding, featuring an angular, dynamic form that introduces a sculptural element to any public, commercial, or residential space.
The structure of the Origami Bench is offered in two primary materials: carbon steel (S235JR) and stainless steel (AISI 304), ensuring durability and resistance to weather elements. Carbon steel models weigh approximately 36 kg, while the stainless steel models are considerably heavier at about 71 kg, attributing to the inherent sturdiness and stability of the material. Each bench measures 45 cm in height, 40 cm in depth, with varying lengths of 136 cm for the long side and 79 cm for the shorter side, making it an ideal choice for spaces needing flexible seating solutions.
Seating options for the Origami Bench are versatile, catering to different aesthetic and practical requirements. Clients can choose from soft wood, hardwood of European origin, hard wood with an oil finish, or premium hardwood, each option providing its own unique texture and colour palette. The wood can be finished in a range of varnish colours for spruce wood or natural colours for exotic wood, details of which are available through specified ZANO links, allowing for customization to specific design needs.
Installation of the Origami Bench is straightforward and secure, designed to be bolted down to a foundation. This method is not only practical for theft prevention but also adds to the bench's stability, making it a reliable option for high-traffic areas. Its modular as well as without backrest features accommodate a variety of layouts and user experiences, from casual park settings to more formal commercial environments.
Considering the environment and typical applications of the Origami Bench, it is most suitable for locations that require strong, long-lasting street furniture with a touch of modernity. Whether deployed in parks, public spaces, corporate environments, or educational institutes, the customizability and robustness of the Origami Bench make it an excellent choice.
In conclusion, the Origami Bench by ZANO is more than just a seating option; it is a piece of contemporary art that functionalises public spaces while enhancing visual appeal. Every component, from material choices to installation methods, reflects ZANO’s commitment to quality and design excellence, positioning the Origami Bench as a key player in the future of urban street furniture.
