Groove bench, design by Piero Lissoni for Porro. Coarse wood and simple lines merge seamlessly in Groove. This a carefully balanced composition rather than just a bench. In line with other Lissoni and Porro products, the Groove bench is a masterpiece of simplicity, elegance and functionality.
The essence of the bench is the horizontal beam and the oblique legs, created with artful sophistication out of solid wood.
As with all Porro products, materials are never overlooked. In this case the bench is made out of Hemlock, a North-American wood with very light grain. It is available both in the original color or died black. It's also available in the new collection of 16 woods.
It has often been noted that there is a zen-like quality to this piece. In fact, Lissoni, whose eclectic style has always been defined by a love for minimalism and elegance was influenced by Japanese art in designing Groove as well as the table Minimo.
It is only appropriate that it should be the Lissoni-Porro duo to create this minimalist and beautiful piece. It elegance and simplicity bear the mark of these world renowned designer and manufacturer. Wherever it is placed, Groove will continue to emanate an aura of quiet perfection.
