Original Oak Bench by Hubsch

When I saw the image in the catalogue I thought "This bench it's perfect"! With the simplicity and functionality that characterise the Scandinavian design, this natural oak bench from the Danish brand Hubsch have a really smart design. The soft cushions at the back and side of the bench are attached to the wooden slats with leather belts, that provides a beautiful contrast to the grey fabric and the natural wood. The cushions turned the bench not only beautiful but also comfortable. The small shelf that can be used as side table it's that final touch that makes the Hubsch bench  a really different furniture piece. You can find it at Lagoon .

Moments

A day spent with family appreciating the beauty of the Bacalhôa Buddha Eden Garden . The visit was not scheduled, I decided to do it when I woke up, and all went well.

Mosquito Chair one of the most important pieces of design, a true Icon.

Born in 1920 in Slovenia , Niko Kralj, as become one of the most renown legends of timeless and minimalistic design. His passion for design, the great interest in acquiring new knowledge, his forward-thinking inventions and an eye for useful, but stylish solutions put him on a pedestal on the list of the great furniture designers.  He becames without doubt one of the most important designers of the last century. 1953 is the year of the first Rex designs were brought to public light.

The Hampstead collection have a soft and inviting profile, that creates a calming look and brings elegance to your patio, decking or in the conservatory. After I explored the collection I also found the Set of 2 Hampstead Chairs . The chairs take i
