Who says sculpture can’t be functional? This striking bench by artist David Somlo blurs the line between art and furniture, with the kind of material innovation that would make a ceramicist raise an eyebrow.

Crafted from a proprietary material that’s stronger and lighter than ceramic, it’s a statement piece that’s surprisingly practical, like a modern masterpiece that also happens to hold your guests. Fully customizable and meticulously made in Spain, this bench is proof that good design doesn’t have to play by the usual rules.
