GGO Biomorphic Lobby Furniture

GGO Biomorphic

Located in Grand Green Osaka, this biomorphic bench is a 16 meter monumental seating system crafted from Japanese oak. The project utilizes advanced digital fabrication to assemble over 6,000 individual parts into 29 organic units. A proprietary concealed joint system successfully hides all metal fasteners. This sculptural public furniture merges traditional manual craftsmanship with parametric computational design, functioning seamlessly as both a relaxing bench and a vibrant planter within the lobby space.

GGO Biomorphic Lobby Furniture by Yoko Komatsu was identified as an innovative illustration of industrial design by the A' Design Award & Competition. GGO Biomorphic Lobby Furniture was awarded the Golden A' Design Award in Furniture Design in 2026. The A' Furniture Design Award is a highly prestigious international design prize which celebrates exceptional design of chairs, tables, sofas, beds, cabinets, shelves, desks, wardrobes and more.
