Israel-based designer Gal Ben-Arav has created the bamboo bench, a raw bamboo seating idea that not only practical but also sustainable. Bamboos are one of the fast-growing plants in the world, thus making it a sustainable materials in the furniture industry. With its durability & flexibility in shaping almost everything, the bamboo bench can be a simple DIY bench by fixing the raw bamboo sticks inside the cast aluminum legs, to form a complete bench with or without a back.

I like the idea of using raw bamboo as the time past, the bamboo will change color and you will have a truly 'wabi-sabi' piece of furniture.
