Wave bench – A Circular, Sculpted Rethink of Seating
Description
Wave bench is an experiment in what circular furniture can look and feel like. Instead of treating recycled materials as hidden structural matter, the project builds its identity around them: a 100% recycled rigid PUR foam core, recycled comfort foam, and an upholstery fabric made from repurposed PET bottles. Every layer supports a closed-loop design ambition—long-lasting, repairable, and fully recyclable after use.
Formally, Wave challenges the idea that a seat must be flat. Its subtly shifting topography—higher here, lower there—creates a comfortable resting surface for users of different ages and body types. This gentle wave-like motion is what gives the bench its name and its character: soft in appearance, stable in function.
The piece is modular and easily scalable. Thanks to precision foam-cutting technology, Wave can be produced in custom widths and lengths, allowing it to form linear arrangements, curved compositions, or playful clusters in both indoor and outdoor environments. Its shape invites interaction, its rhythm encourages flow.
Wave began as an outdoor prototype driven by material durability tests, but quickly evolved into a broader family of indoor and outdoor elements—all sharing the same sculptural geometry and circular material palette. Accessories and connector pieces are currently in development to further expand its lounge-space functionality.
Wave is not just a bench. It is a proposal for how recycled materials can lead to new geometries, new tactile qualities, and a new visual language for sustainable furniture.
