Hasta La Ideas

Norwegian designer Daniel Rybakken designed this handsome Ypsilon bench for Vestre.

“Ypsilon’s angled, solid glulam beams rest on laser-cut, arched sheets of galvanized steel.”

“The angled wooden beams provide a comfortable seating surface, while their sloping surfaces mean that water will quickly drain off the bench.”

“They also open up the possibility of very long straight and circular models.”

“Ypsilon is available either with or without a backrest and armrests, with a tabletop and in 200 RAL colors for the steel.”
