The Ribs Bench is a sculptural furniture piece defined by fluid and organic design.
Constructed with a flexible metal spine and wooden slats, a bench that moves was inspired by the movement of a ribcage.
Designed by Stefan Lie in 1999, the Ribs Bench slithers between art and furniture like a fever dream of bent wood and metal.
Flexible spine lets it twist, shift, and morph like some kind of sentient creature waiting for the right moment to pounce.
Wooden slats, evenly spaced like the bones of some prehistoric beast, give it an unsettling elegance.
