Sancal Interchange Bench
INTERCHANGE BENCH
INTERCHANGE BENCH
Designed by Luca Nichetto
Interchange is Luca Nichetto’s incredibly versatile bench. Its base is inspired by the architectural forms of Turati station’s lattice ceiling. A highly adaptable solution, it combines geometry, materials and functions.
The solid ash wood lattice is available in two sizes and serves as a support for a range of configurations. Different elements can be fixed through the holes with a simple fastening system. This way, the bench can incorporate comfortable seats or tables with different shapes and finishes.
The tables can be fitted to the outer edge of the bench or even poke out slightly. The seats, on the other hand, must always be placed entirely with the perimeter of the lattice.
The personalisation options are completed with the stain colours for the bench, the stain colours for the ash tables, the high gloss lacquer colours for MDF tables, and endless fabric, vinyl and leather options for the seat cushions.
DESIGNER
LUCA NICHETTO
"I believe that functionality as well as aesthetics are fundamental to make a product complete. For me, form is important and it is linked to what I want to convey through the object."
Luca Nichetto is one of the most renowned international designers. Although he started his career in 1999 working for acclaimed brands like Foscarini, in 2006 he founded his own multidisciplinary design studio in Venice. In 2011, Nichetto opened a second studio in Stockholm, Sweden.
His personal take on design is influenced by both cultures; Scandinavian and Italian, being joined by a deep knowledge of craftmanship and industrial processes. Sancal asked him to take inspiration from the Turati metro station in Milan to create a complete set of products. The end result successfully combines form and function in his first collaboration with the marque.
