Readers sometimes ask assistance to determine a piece of seating furniture.
Reverse Google Image search does not always help out and we have some very distinguished and knowledgeable readers here.
Anybody an idea of this bench’s provenance?
Update Trienal by Andreu World
Two of the minis are from Capdell, the white one is the Sail chair from Andreu World.

Andreu World presented the awards of the 11th edition of the International Design Competition. 1st prizes went to Twin Chair by Edward Kaiser (Bietigheim-Bissingen, Germany) and Capas chair by Sebastien Cordolean (Barcelona, Spain).
This happened to me with the Harpah chair before, and now this happened to Jaime of Design Milk with the Nub Collection by Patricia Urquiola for Andreu World America – we discovered these gems via advertisements on the very websites we write for, respectively, oh irony!..
The Nub collection is the result of a sophisticated cabinet-making process, updated with great care in a contemporary manner. The project’s essential element is not so much the cylindrical bars, but rather the pleasant widening of the bars in the backrest at the height of the lumbar region, an alternating rhythm that grants recognition to the project, offering materiality and a three-dimensional quality to the chair.
