Finnish quality: 153B bench from Artek

This Finnish birch bench provides comfortable seating with an aesthetic appeal in both private and public spaces. Bench 153B is light, versatile and equally at home in public and private spaces. The bench combines strength with the warm, organic qualities of Finnish birch. Thanks to Aalto's pioneering L-leg system, the legs can be mounted directly to the seat without complicated connectors.

Ingenious pioneer in furniture design: architect and designer Alvar Aalto

Alvar Aalto is regarded as one of the best designers and architects in the world. Back in the 1930s, the Finn astounded us with designs that are still an integral part of the furniture industry today. Aalto is also a pioneer in plywood processing. Influenced by the German Bauhaus, he experimented with this material from the end of the 1920s and, together with his wife Aino Aalto, created numerous pieces of furniture that combined modern forms with natural materials. His architectural masterpieces include the Paimio Clinic in Turku (now a World Heritage Site), the library in Viipuri (in present-day Russia) and the Finnish pavilion at the 1939 World's Fair in New York.

Artek - always modern

Artek was founded in Helsinki in 1935 by four young idealists: Alvar and Aino Aalto, Maire Gullichsen and Nils-Gustav Hahl. They wanted to promote a modern culture of living with their designs. The radical spirit of its founders still lives on in Artek today, and the company produces furniture from the world of modern design that stands at the interface of design, architecture and art. They are characterised by clarity, functionality and poetic simplicity.

Material and format

The bench is made of solid birch and birch plywood and measures H 44.5 cm x W 72.5 cm x D 40 cm.
