Bench 153A

Benches from Artek, Designed by Alvar Aalto

Product description

Bench 153 is lightweight, versatile, and equally at home in the public and private spheres. The seat is composed of solid birch wood and features vertical recesses that make the bench light and easy to move. Combining strength with the warm organic qualities of Finnish birch, Bench 153 pairs naturally with other members of the L-leg family. Thanks to Aalto’s ground-breaking L-leg system, the legs can be mounted directly to the seat without the need for complicated connecting elements. Designed by Alvar Aalto in 1945, Bench 153 is a late and much beloved addition to the L-leg collection.

Concept

A truly versatile item of furniture, the bench offers multiple possibilities from seating to storage surface to low table. Highly portable, the bench can be integrated into any setting or stand alone, be teamed up with other items from a collection or displayed solo. Coming in a variety of materials and styles, the Artek benches showcased here command attention. While different designers have contributed to the range, continuity is provided by the values of simplicity, craftsmanship, and versatility.
