TWIN: A Bench With Social Character

TWIN is a modular bench designed by Andrea Rekalidis that can easily transform into different configurations depending on your style and use. Besides the TWIN form, it can also be assembled into a swinging bench or a standard bench.

Rekalidis created the bench to “evoke the icon of the scale, a symbol of fairness and equality.” When it’s in its original TWIN configuration, the bench must be balanced between those sitting on it, emphasizing cooperation and partnership. The structural core of the bench is right where the seat and the stand join, further accentuated by the contrasting colors of the wood. It’s like a well-designed version of a seesaw!
