Twister Wooden Bench by Designer Yuriko Takahashi

Twister is a fitting name for this wooden bench designed by Yuriko Takahashi. Twister is constructed of laminated birch veneer and comes in the natural color pictured here or in black. An interesting aspect of the bench is how it "flows" in a room.

I am reminded of a roller coaster track and how it shapes contorts as it focuses the cars along the track in a pre-specified direction. An installation of Twister appears in the headquarters of the New York Times building. Measurements: 41 cm x 41 cm per section.
