U Bench by Luur
U-Tube
Luur is a multi-disciplinary design studio from the US with a sleek, streamlined aesthetic which feels utterly fresh and contemporary. Luur's designs include jewellery, lighting, furniture and landscapes, but our favourite Luur product is the U Bench.
The U Bench is made of two steel sections, each made from a single sheet of steel that has been rolled into a circular shape with a flat base. The two sections are then joined together, one with the flat base facing up and the other facing down. The end result is a sculptural occasional table or bench which reveals a perfect circle when viewed from the side. Clever, elegant and very beautiful.

Product Inspiration
Simple and sculptural furniture look great in contemporary spaces. Try the Split Step ladder / shelf from Frederik Roije or the Chariot trolley from Casamania.
The Cape pendant light from Moustache and the Orbit wall light from LZF both have interesting sculptural shapes despite their simple construction.
Add maximum style with minimal effort with sculptural accessories such as the Hara candle from Andrej Urem and the Slide serving tray from Finell.

Artistry of Solid Wood by Casimir
The elegant and minimalist furniture by Belgian designer Casimir is not only beautiful: by stripping his designs to their core, the designer often reveals thought-provoking questions and also a hint of subversion.
