Pair of Benches by Bernt Peterson

This pair of benches, designed by Bernt Petersen in the 1960s, are crafted from solid pine they feature a beautifully rational slatted construction that offers both structural clarity and visual lightness.

The rounded edges of the frame and legs soften the otherwise linear composition, highlighting Petersen’s attention to tactile detail. The slight elevation of the upper slats introduces a subtle architectural gesture, enhancing the benches' profile and creating a dynamic interplay of light and shadow across the surface.

Compact yet substantial, these benches embody a quiet functionality, making them equally suited for use in a hallway, bedroom, or as supplementary seating in a living space.
