The prototype bench is made from Oak. The construction is simple: 2 end profiles with a top and dowel between them.
The angled seat is designed to give more comfort than a flat wooden board might. The end silhouette/ elevation of this bench is rather obviously derived from a simplified sketch of a pair of work pants (Arbeid ‘Bukser’ in Norwegian).
The intention has been to provide a product to sit on that is not subject to a change in trends or fashion.
