Bench Pressure

Aluminum Pressure Bench by Tim Teven. The deformation of metal through pressure reveals fascinating technical details as well as new visual and tactile qualities. The Pressure stool and bench are made from aluminum sheets into which a pattern is pressed. This pressure hardens the material; on the other hand, the normally cold and rigid aluminum takes on a surprisingly soft and pleasant appearance. This technique makes it possible to produce lightweight seating from aluminum as thin as 2 mm. DV2499.
