Michael Hauck Designs - Artisan Area

This bench, which Michael Hauck says was inspired by an image of a Shinto Shrine gate, evokes a calm presence. I could not agree more. Sometimes a bench just needs to be a bench - and this bench is telling me to slow down and have a seat. Michael's other pieces all seem to have a similar calm presence. They don't all speak to me at the same time though - that would be really noisy. Besides, I don't really speak Japanese all that well.
