Touch Bench is from the Touch Collection, designed by Studioilse for Zanat. A Bosnian family-owned brand with a focus on dignified, hand-crafted woodwork and traditional carvings. For the Touch Collection, Studioilse has combined rustic woodwork with modern elegance. The bench consists of a rectangular seat resting on a simple base with an x-shaped profile. Handcrafted in solid wood, it is available in a variety of wood types and finishes. The seat has a textured surface that is carved by hand and gives the Touch range its character.
The bench is available in two heights and can be used for many different purposes, as an extra relief surface or seating in a hall, kitchen or living room. The bench is also available in a version with a back rest.
The Touch Collection is created with a special technique where the surface of the wood is carved freehand, giving it a rough texture, designed to appeal to the impulse of wanting to touch the furniture. The design is intended to be an analogous way of engaging with the environment in our increasingly digital age. Because of the craftsmanship, each Touch Collection piece will be one-of-a-kind.
