The 'Mucki' Bench by Sergio Rodrígues presented here is in an exceptionally rare format. This example measures 303 cm in length and was produced as a special commission, a scale rarely seen and one that elevates the bench into a more architectural statement within a space.
When first presented, the Mucki Bench was recognised for its clarity and restraint, offering a quiet counterpoint to the more expressive furniture of its time. Its elongated form and honest construction marked an important moment in Rodríguez’s practice, and the bench is now regarded as a key work that helped define the calm, measured language seen throughout his later designs.
