saw beton­möbel

2013_saw_betonmobel

saw concrete furniture is an extensive product family intended for outdoor use, designed above all for public spaces like parks, outdoor swimming pools and playgrounds. The production of this robust and weather-resistant furniture has been based on the most modern concrete technology. The use of a highly stable selflevelling concrete forms the basis for long cantilever arms and a conspicuously slimline silhouette. The concrete planes are just four centimetres thick, lending the entire collection a surprising lightness in visual terms and so underlining the sculptural quality.

Comments of the nominators

A notably elegant outdoor furniture creation in concrete. Its sweeping formal idiom, emblematic minimalism and ultra-modern production technique all make a great impression. The collection will give a new boost to Swiss concrete furniture production.
