Botanist Minimal:
Constructed from sustainably harvested poplar and high grade engineered veneers, the Botanist Minimal has been designed with no visible hardware. It is composed of two distinct elements: a formed bentwood sleeve and a structural brace.

The Art of Reduction:
The minimalistic design is based on a reduction based process. The typical bench was examined and rigorously reduced to its essential elements. The basic components are a bentwood top which transitions into structural legs and a center rib for stability. 

Kickstart?
What is Kickstart? A funding platform for creative projects. A new form of commerce and patronage. On Kickstart, a project funding goal and time frame are established. In this case, Botanist Minimal is requesting funding to set up production – includnig tooling, materials purchasing and final packaging to get this piece into production. The funding request ends Friday. So far Botanist has exceeded its goal of $20,000 by $6,405. Five days are left to support this project.

Why Pledge?
Every dollar counts – if you help make this a reality, then Botanist Minimal will be available online or at a great design shop in the near future. You can feel great about helping make inspired design become a reality and know you helped a design studio get a chance at self production.

Botanist is offering nice incentives for those who join in: Most notably, PLEDGE  $299 and receive the All Wood Bench with a signature medallion and a limited edition Botanist poster. This piece will be listed at $799, so, in addition to supporting design, early backers receive a fantastic deal!
