TORI | Sculptural Bench

The Tori Bench by RIES is a handcrafted sculptural bench inspired by the Japanese torii gate, a symbolic structure representing the transition between the profane and the sacred. Reinterpreting this architectural icon through contemporary design, the bench explores rhythm, proportion and material expression, resulting in a collectible design piece that balances monumentality with refined simplicity.

A Sculptural Bench Cast in Aluminium

Produced in Buenos Aires using the lost-foam casting technique, the bench is crafted from solid sand-cast aluminium, allowing subtle surface textures and imperfections to become part of its character. Balancing monumentality with simplicity, the Tori Bench functions as both practical seating and a sculptural statement within residential and hospitality interiors.
