No. 3 Bench by Floris Wubben Combines Natural and Hi-Tech Materials

Dutch designer Floris Wubben crafts beautifully strange pieces that combine natural and high-tech materials. It's that blend of rough, textured surfaces with new technologies that makes his designs stand out from the crowd. One of our favorite examples is the No. 3 Bench, made from an accordion-folded sheet of white polypropylene that follows the contours of a piece of driftwood.

Pressed Objects: Floris Wubben’s Brutally Tactile Designs for the Human Touch

By Ana Lisa Alperovich

Tactility is especially important in today's day and age, as we're in constant competition with a world full of screens. That is the beauty of Floris Wubben's Pressed Objects; they aim to bring back textures to our day-to-day life. Made from pressed epoxy clay, the objects come in the shape of vases, flowerpots, and recipients, all created by a coalition between the hands and a machine.

Floris Wubben’s Eyrie Bench is a Human Nest Inspired by Eagles

By Ana Lisa Alperovich

The noun Eyrie is "a large nest of an eagle or other bird of prey, built high in a tree or on a cliff." Take it poetically or quite literarily, like this Dutch design studio recently did. The Eyrie Bench by Floris Wubben is a cumulus of interconnected wooden ash slats resting on tree branches that form its legs. Sculptural and natural, this seat works as a human nest inviting you to sit back and take a rest.
