Origami appears to balance weightlessly on the front edge, but it is anchored to the ground by sturdy metal supports underneath.

Origami

Park Bench

Design Thorbjörn Andersson

The striking shape of this eye-catching bench was inspired by origami, the Japanese art of making objects out of folded paper. Like origami, this bench has been designed with crisp ‘folds’ that conceal the legs, form the seat and shape the backrest. The result is a backed bench that appears to balance weightlessly on the bottom edge, but is anchored to the ground by the metal supports that form its shape.

Materials and surface treatments

Mahogany - FSC-certified

FSC-marked mahogany is a wood with good durability in the outdoor environment. In addition, it retains its color tone better than, for example, oak and teak. Mahogany lives and moves, sometimes more than teak.

Oak

Oak is a heavy, hard and medium tough wood. Moderately dimensionally stable in case of moisture changes. Oak wood blackens if it is exposed to moisture or wetness for a long time. However, it does not affect the other properties of the wood. Thanks to its hardness and toughness, the oak wood is suitable for furniture and other use in exposed environments.

Steel

Nola uses high-quality steel with good strength in our products. Steel rusts if left untreated and must therefore be surface treated. 

Wood oil

Wood oil provides good protection against the stresses of the outdoor climate and at the same time highlights the wood's natural appearance and properties.

SiOO:X treatment

Sioo:x is a wood protection with environmentally friendly silicon technology. Water-based and biocide-free. We use Sioo mainly for our oak furniture. Sioo:x treatment of is suitable for all woods, outside as well as inside, and gives a light surface without pigments. The surface is UV-resistant, water-repellent and non-stick. Active and preventive action against algae, mould and pests. Also rot-proof, wood-strengthening and fire-retardant. This wood protection provides long durability and easy maintenance.

Electrogalvanized

Electrogalvanizing (also known as zinc plating) provides corrosion protection through the sacrifice of zinc ions. It is created via a zinc coating on the steel using an electric current.

Powder coating

Powder coating is a coating that is applied as a free-flowing, dry powder. Unlike conventional liquid paint, powder coating is usually applied electrostatically and then cured under heat or with ultraviolet light. The result is an even, hard-wearing coloured surface with the desired gloss level.

Assembly and placement

Fully assembled.

Fastsättningsbar Kan skruvas fast ovan mark, i golv eller på platsgjuten grund. Bultar ingår ej.

Maintenance

Oiled oak

Oiled oak should be oiled twice a year for best protection. Good maintenance can never completely prevent stains from occurring, but oak that is not maintained will turn blacker and turn gray faster, but it still has a very long life. When re-oiling products, a finely boiled oil that penetrates the wood should be chosen over a film-forming oil.

Oiled mahogany

Oiled mahogany should be oiled two times a year.

SiOO:X treatment oak

Sioo:x-treated products are treated twice upon delivery; once with a wood protection (Premium Träskydd Altan) and once with a surface protection (Premium Ytskydd Altan). After 12 - 18 months, for best durability, the surface should be treated once more with Sioo:x Premium Ytskydd Altan. It is important to keep the product clean, otherwise the surface protection can be destroyed. Products that are exposed to heavy mechanical wear may need extra treatments.The surface treatment has a tested effect according to the standards EN 46 and EN 113.

For information about the Sioo treatment see the website www.sioox.se.

Powdercoated steel

Products that are powder-coated can be touch-up painted with alkyd paint.
