PLICO - Bench
A single curve of solid wood, unfolding in space.
The PLICO bench takes its name from the Latin verb “to fold” – a nod to ancient sailors who would call “plico!” when arriving in port with their sails neatly folded. This heritage lives on in our mastery of wood bending, where a single solid wood panel curves tightly without interrupting the grain’s natural flow. Clever construction ensures remarkable strength while preserving an extreme minimalist silhouette – no straight edges, just a continuous organic form.
At 125cm long and 36cm deep, its slender profile adapts effortlessly to any space: as a hallway statement, a bedroom accent, or extra seating in living areas. The seating surface features subtle milling for comfort, seamlessly integrated into the bench’s fluid design. Customers may select their preferred wood species and finish, with an option for a striking two-tone treatment where the underside contrasts with the top surface. Crafted to seat two people at an ideal 45cm height, PLICO balances sculptural presence with quiet functionality.
