Over my time with Trend Hunter, I’ve seen my fair share of unique collections, but I have to say that the Jeppe Hein Social Bench line has to be one of my favorite. I agree with AnotherFaceInTheCrowd when he assumes that it is entitled ‘social’ because its design ‘brings two people together.’
Born in Copenhagen and based in Berlin, this talented designer has created a collection worthy of admiration. The Jeppe Hein Social Bench line is sure to be one of your favorite Trend Hunter posts, especially after you check out the gallery above.
