A “big bench” has also arrived in the Sala Monferrato!
It is a bench of Large size positioned in a lookout point, which has the intention to bring us back to the size of when we were children and we saw the world with wonder, in another point of view. Once you sit on one of them you live an intense experience, to share with others. Benches are made to relax, and unlike a chair or armchair, they are wide enough to accommodate more friends at the same time.
The project was born a few years ago by an American who, having moved to the Langhe, decided to spread this idea.
