This spring, #sikadesign launches new iconic teak bench by Arne Jacobsen and a new hand-painted Exterior color inspired by natural rattan.

St Catherine by Arne Jacobsen
St Catherine is an exclusive teak bench designed by #arnejacobsen in 1935. The bench was designed for Danish wholesaler Helge Wandel's villa, and when #arnejacobsen in the late 1950s got his first major project abroad, designing St Catherine College in Oxford, the teak bench was included in the plan for the associated college park.

Arne Jacobsen had a great passion for botany and spent a lot of time studying the landscape around his summer cottage. As an architect, #arnejacobsen deployed this interest to expand his projects to include the landscape surrounding the buildings, and is known to have said "If I had a second life, I would be a gardener".

Carefully hand-painted Exterior furniture
Sika-Design's new Exterior color 'Alu Antique' combines the strength of weather-resistant materials with the charm of natural rattan. The #furniture is handcrafted in aluminum and ArtFibre using the same traditional techniques as in the production of rattan #furniture.

The unique attribute of the color is that it is hand-painted with great precision inspired by the beautiful structure of rattan. This is a craft that requires time and precision, and where it takes approximately 5 hours to paint a single lounge chair.
