At Woodbender, our approach to furniture design is rooted in heritage, innovation, and a commitment to excellence. Time to Time, our latest installation at Cape Town Furniture Week, is more than just a bench - it’s a statement of who we are and what we stand for.
This piece embodies authenticity, timeless design, and forward-thinking creativity, seamlessly blending our renowned steam-bending techniques with contemporary aesthetics and sustainable practices. It serves as a tribute to the craft we have refined over decades while embracing the evolution of design.
A Celebration of Craft and Connection
Woodbender’s story is one of craftsmanship and innovation, and Time to Time reflects this journey. The bench comprises four of the our signature chair silhouettes—each representing a defining moment in Woodbender’s journey—while the fifth element embodies the company’s relentless pursuit of innovation, pushing the boundaries of steam bending.
Beyond its function, Time to Time represents the core values that drive us: connection, excellence, and enduring quality. The installation showcases a selection of our most iconic chairs, each offering a distinct experience and marking a significant chapter in our history.
Honouring the Past, Designing for the Future
While deeply rooted in tradition, Time to Time is also a vision for the future. Crafted with sustainability in mind, it highlights our commitment to responsible design—choosing materials and techniques that ensure longevity without compromising on beauty.
This installation is a reminder that great design is not just about aesthetics; it’s about creating meaningful, lasting experiences. Whether it’s a family gathered around the dining table or a quiet moment of reflection, Woodbender furniture is designed to be a part of life’s most memorable moments.
Time to Time is more than just a bench. It’s a tribute, an invitation, and a promise - one that reflects our past, embraces the present, and looks toward the future.
