After extensive research on the range of flexibility of the human spine, Prototype 01 for Parametric Bench was born. It consists of a sequence of plywood ribs in the X-axis. It’s been designed parametrically in Grasshopper, this allows the user to control variables like:

_X, Y & Z dimensions (corresponding to the number of seats, the surface of seating area, and height excluding the backrest of the bench) _Height & form on the backrest _Number of ribs depending on their distance between one another _Material thickness of ribs _Angles of min and max spine flexo-extension

The Parametric Bench is designed for CNC Router, so the material can vary depending on the user’s necessity or taste. Materials may vary from plywood to solid wood or others. It’s easy to assemble based on a mechanism of inserts, the Grasshopper formula varies depending on the type and thickness of the material.
