Contemporary Estriado Bench by Domingos Tótora, Brazil, 2014

About the Item

The Contemporary Estriado Bench by Domingos Tótora is a unique and stunning piece of furniture created in Brazil in 2014. The bench is made entirely of recycled cardboard, meticulously crafted into a series of vertical ribbons that are layered and molded to form a smooth, undulating surface. The result is a breathtaking display of texture and depth, with the organic, irregular patterns of the cardboard creating a beautiful contrast against the straight, geometric lines of the bench's form. The bench is not only beautiful, but also functional, with its sturdy construction capable of supporting several people at once. It's a true work of art that showcases the beauty and potential of sustainable design. About the artist: Born and raised in Maria da Fé, a small Southeastern Brazilian town in the Mantiqueira Mountains, Domingos Tótora finds in this habitat of expression and experimentation not only his roots and affective ties, but also his main source of inspiration: nature. Surrounded by the local landscape, the designer works with a surprising raw material, recycled cardboard, to create furniture, objects and sculptural pieces. The beauty of Tótora’s work manifests itself not only in the finished piece, but also in the careful, certified sustainable process through which cardboard, which originated as wood, is essentially brought back full cycle by taking on a wood-like quality again through the careful work of the designer’s hands.
