Paolo Ulian and Moreno Ratti have teamed up to create the 'Land' bench, a design that was made from water jet-cut material. The bench is made for both indoor and outdoor uses, making it quite a versatile piece.
Carrara marble was used as the material for the product, which resulted in a very high-end piece of furniture. Because the inside of the bench is hollow, less material was used for making the piece. This helps, making it not quite as expensive as it would be if the marble was used throughout the entire structure.
For anyone looking for an elegant piece of furniture to put inside their home or on the patio, the 'Land' bench by Paolo Ulian and Moreno Ratti will add a touch of class.
