Poh (Patchwork Oval Hemisphere) by Raphael Navot

This stupendous 2012 design by Raphael Navot is a bench, coffee table, and sculptural work of art. An expression of the contrary of the statement “form follows function”, it is a one-of-a-kind sculptural piece part of a numbered edition of singular Poh benches, each composed of a different patchwork of wooden pieces manually assembled in a casual manner and then cut by a machine in a digitally created sequence covered with solid natural American walnut.
