The latest edition of our Dezeen Debate newsletter features a reusable formwork that moulds trees into benches. Subscribe to Dezeen Debate now.
The demountable metal mould that shapes willow trees into a self-supporting bench was created by Belgian design firm Studio Part.
Readers were captivated by the design, with one calling it "innovative and sustainable". Another praised the "beautiful concept", noting that it "promotes deeper interrelation with the built and natural world".
Other stories in this week's newsletter that fired up the comments section included the discovery of a letter in a false column of the National Gallery's Sainsbury Wing, a house in Toronto featuring offset windows and diamond-panel cladding and Foster + Partners design for a supertall skyscraper in Miami.
