About the Item

Bench No. 1 Solid Oak bench from an O'Neil Ford designed structure on the Texas Instruments Campus in Dallas, Texas. Attributed to his brother, Lynn Ford, who was a master woodworker who collaborated with the architect on many of his important projects. These benches were acquired from the private collection of a lifelong employee at T.I. who purchased them when one of the buildings was being remodeled during his tenure at the company. The owner had a keen eye for design and had amassed an impressive collection of Herman Miller and Knoll pieces. We have two identical benches, but one was refinished to a slightly darker finish at some point throughout the years. This listing is for one bench. Both are currently available in separate listings.

Timber Mazer Bench by Tom Fereday
By Tom Fereday
Located in Geneve, CH
Timber Mazer Bench by Tom Fereday Dimensions: W 190 x D 45 x H 50 cm Materials: Solid Oak & Walnut. MAZER COLLECTION: Mazer represents a series of geometric sculptures, each a celebration of the fundamental beauty and natural variation of stone. Strict brutalist forms of the table and seating collection are juxtaposed by soft organic cutaways carving through the porous stone surfaces, revealing the natural beauty and character of travertine. Named after the medieval term ‘Mazer’ meaning bowl, the collection presents subtle organic forms proportioned for table and seating function designed for permanence. Porous formations of the stone’s structure act as an intentional disruption to the clean geometric forms of the series adding character and intrigue. The limited edition series was crafted from travertine and locally produced in Italy from a combination of machine and traditional hand made processes, each piece exhibiting its own unique characteristics and form with no one piece alike. Mazer is designed by Australian designer Tom Fereday exemplifying Fereday’s desire to honour materiality, combining form and function to produce enduring works. Tom Fereday develops products based on the principle of honest design, conveying a design process which celebrates the materials and manufacturing processes behind furniture and products, to design from the inside out. By using the materials and environment as a positive design constraint we guide intelligent and thoughtful design outcomes which connect with people through natural materials, tactile finishes and unique design. We strive to create enduring designs which are meaningful to people and their environment. Born in Australia, Tom Fereday grew up in England studying at the Wimbledon School of Art before moving to Sydney to complete an honours in Industrial Design at the University of Technology Sydney. Working across europe and Australia Tom Fereday went onto found his sole practice in 2012.
