Since the beginning, The Catalano bench has
been left unchanged. It has a lasting quality and
an uninterrupted beauty. Antoni Gaudí developed
a profile for his Güell Park benches in Barcelona.
Lluís Clotet and Oscar Tusquets found that the
benches’ ergonomics were unimprovable, so they
adapted the design into the Catalano. It has been
in our catalogue since 1973, and remains one of our
most popular pieces.
Its one-metre length is light with a netted body
that is almost translucent. This prevents rainwater
collecting and keeps the structure cool in
summer. It blends into its surroundings, can be
assembled back-to-back, and has different leg
options depending on its desired placement. While
paying homage to Gaudí, the Catalano bench is
effortlessly functional and beautifully dynamic.
