A truly versatile and timeless design, this Solid-Top Bench was designed in 1945 by Alvar Aalto and manufactured by Artek, who are both represented in MoMA’s collection. Handmade in Finland from birch wood, this minimalist bench is characterized by Aalto’s distinctive L-shaped legs. Use the bench as seating at a dining table, as a place to put on your shoes in your entryway, as patio seating, as a place for your kids to store and display toys or as a living room coffee table—the possibilities are endless.
