Brut Bench – / Wood & Cast Iron – L 220 Cm – Magis

To create the Brut collection, the famous German designer Konstantin Grcic used one of the oldest ferrous metal forming techniques: cast iron. Cast iron has an almost archaic material presence, taking us back to the heart of the industrial revolution. Used in Victorian garden furniture or for bridge construction since the early 18th century, it’s both heavy and sturdy. A rational design with an industrial feel for this Brut bench with its generous dimensions (L 220 cm). It offers a nice mix of materials. It consists of a solid, stable structure in black cast iron topped off by a seat in natural solid oak. The seat consists of 2 slats which are grooved and slightly spaced apart. This bench is simple and solid, which is precisely its strength. Nothing is superfluous. When you keep just the essential, only the essence remains: a functional, timeless design.
