Originally conceived as a multi-purpose platform, the bench functions effortlessly as seating, a low table, or a sculptural foundation for objects and books.

Crafted from solid maple wood, the bench features evenly spaced slats that create a rhythmic linear pattern while allowing light to pass through—giving the piece a light, architectural presence. The warm natural finish highlights the wood grain and emphasizes the precision of its construction. Slim chromed steel hairpin legs provide visual contrast and structural balance, reinforcing its modernist character.

A discreet Herman Miller / George Nelson label confirms authenticity.
