Dua Studio's Bench X N: Where Function Meets Style
Is the Bench X N by Dua Studio the Perfect Fusion of Design and Utility?
We conducted a study at Art Jakarta Garden in 2022, exploring the effects of size on a bench. We decided to lengthen a single bench by arranging multiple benches into one continuous bench. This created a very long, yet temporary, bench. We were curious to see how people would interact with this new seating arrangement. Would they position themselves further apart or closer together? Would they interact or isolate themselves? We found the results of our experiment to be very interesting and believe that the (very) long bench could be used in different contexts and occasions in the future.
