About the Item
Bench I by Kasanai
Dimensions: D 100 x W 80 x H 45 cm.
Materials: Oak, cement, recycled paper, glue, paint.
25 kg.
The visual inspiration for the bench is a combination of natural wood and concrete. These two opposite materials combined, create a unique character of the product that has the coldness of concrete and the coziness of wood.
The tabletop is made of natural oak, and the base of the table, resembling concrete in appearance, is made by pouring solid mass. The set task was technologically challenging - it was necessary to fuse wet mass and moisture-sensitive wood. The entire structure of the table is manufactured at the same time, so that the two materials join together smoothly and precisely to avoid any gaps. After the product dries, it is scrubbed, and the tabletop is oiled.
The black concrete-like material is the result of various experiments. It is a mixture of several components: an eco-friendly of cement, recycled paper, glue, and paint. Dried it becomes as strong as wood, it resembles concrete but is slightly elastic, so it does not split or crumble.The result is a natural texture and strength that ensures durability.
Donatas Žukauskas
Hello, my name is Donatas Žukauskas, I am an interior designer. I have graduated Vilnius Academy of Fine Arts and for more then 15 years I have been designing the interiors. Since I can remember myself I have always been interested in the art and this is the reason I have always tried to decorate interiors with art works. I strongly believe, a perfect interior cannot be without art!
This concept used to get difficulties because could not find necessary objects for interior like stylish tables, lamps, lanterns, vases, sculptures. This gave an idea to create some arts by myself. Exceptional hand-made details for the home, cafe, and hotel spaces provide expressiveness and manners.
My works are exposed in different countries of the world. Recently 50 lanterns went to Sheraton’s restaurant at Doha, Qatar.

Galerie Philia
Galerie Philia is an international contemporary sculptural design and art gallery representing emerging and established designers and artists. The gallery is the brainchild of two brothers who share a lifetime passion for art, literature and philosophy. Their distinct academic background sets them apart from their peers, as it sees them following a rhizomatic and transcultural approach in the way they select works. This involves combining elements from multiple cultures in what becomes a network of harmoniously interconnected roots, ultimately revealing the beauty of each unique creation. The gallery’s non-hierarchical curation sits apart from the ephemerality of trends and focuses instead on the true aesthetic quality of the piece – alluring and timeless. Unlike others, Galerie Philia does not focus on a single style – whether minimalist, organic or raw – but rather embraces heterogeneity. The Galerie Philia takes pride in discovering new talents, providing them with multiple international platforms to showcase their latest creations. As well as propelling the newest generation of 21st century collectible design, Galerie Philia also works with internationally known design artists. Galerie Philia has a strong international presence, with galleries in Geneva, New York and Singapore. In addition to their permanent spaces, the gallery organizes temporary group exhibitions and artists residencies in first-class locations around the world.

The fusion of sturdiness and elegance, along with the blend of archaism and modernity. More than just a surface for placing objects, these tables are functional pieces of art that effortlessly become focal points within any room.

The resulting material not only imitates the strength of wood, but also has a natural texture reminiscent of its organic counterpart. This texture adds a tactile dimension to the tables and provides a sensory experience that combines visual appeal with pleasant touch. Donatas Žukauskas...Category
