Designed by Frama Studio, The Bench 01 is inspired by chairs commonly found in Nordic churches since the early 20th century. Originating in the UK before being imported to Scandinavia, this style of round-nosed wooden seating epitomises the democratic ideals that defined modern design. 

With the introduction of the highly versatile Bench 01, Frama has endeavoured to capture this democratic spirit by creating a useful object that is at home in a wide range of residential and commercial interiors. Constructed with premium-grade and locally sourced Baltic Birch, the joints of Bench 01 are intentionally left exposed as an expression of the chair's traditional method of production. Finished with organic hard wax and oils, each bench is intended to develop a naturally unique wood patina as it ages.

Defined by a geometric silhouette and a series of stark linear planes, The Bench 01 is a picture of simplicity. Entirely made from solid birch wood and birch plywood, the bench is durable and it ensures a natural look and feel. The Bench 01 is versatile and can be used as a dining bench, hallway bench, as well as a side table in various spaces. The bench will pair well with the Frama Chair 01, sharing typologies and a consistent seating height.
