Each element is crafted to showcase the raw elegance of wood, with expressive shapes and thoughtful contrasts in texture, tone, and color that add depth and character to the piece. The sturdy legs and supportive structure emphasise stability, while subtle design details enrich the bench’s understated yet powerful presence. Invito is a collection that quietly commands attention - a testament to the strength of honest materials and masterful craftsmanship.
Production process
The Invito bench is crafted with precision and care, starting with the selection of high-quality, sustainably sourced hardwoods. Each wooden element is meticulously chosen to ensure consistency in grain, tone, and structure. The components are cut and shaped using CNC technology for accuracy, followed by hand-finishing to refine every curve and edge. The bench’s robust frame is assembled with precision joinery techniques, reinforcing the design’s inherent strength and longevity. Artisans carefully sand the surfaces with fine-grained sandpaper, ensuring a smooth, flawless finish. Natural oils or matte lacquers are applied to protect the wood and enhance its organic beauty, allowing the grain and natural variations to shine through. The result is a piece that feels both grounded and refined - a bench designed to endure, aging gracefully as it tells the story of its material and the skill of its makers.
