The El Raval neighbourhood in Barcelona is a meeting point for multitudes. Close to the old port, the area was informally known as Barri Xinès or "Chinatown”. Today, it hosts a diverse immigrant community from all parts who call it home. The El Raval bench by Yabu Pushelberg takes this approach to heart by creating a vignette for minds to meet. A piece with inspiration from as many places as the people who meet in its namesake neighborhood.

Via del Corso, designed by Yabu Pushelberg, is the centre of life in historical Rome. Meeting at the Piazza Venezia with its three-sided roundabout and monumental churches “the Corso” is impressive. Yabu Pushelberg’s lounge chair has the same purposeful and imposing profile as the via but is balanced by soft curves and a lightness from its floating feet.

Takayama, designed by Yabu Pushelberg, is an Edo-era mountain town in Japan’s mountainous Gifu Prefecture, is famed for Ukai fishing. The Fishermen employ a 1300-year-old technique using trained Cormorant birds. The birds swoop in and catch fish using the light of burning baskets hung on rods over the edge of boats to see their prey. The arc of the Takayama floor lamp by Yabu Pushelberg bears an uncanny resemblance to the fisherman’s friend..

Osvaldo Tenorio’s Rua Tucumã coffee tables mirror the natural inspiration evident in all things Brazilian where the line between indoors and outdoors disappears.
