Artek 153A bench is a light and versatile piece of furniture for home and public spaces. The slatted bench designed by Alvar Aalto in 1945 has been polished to the last detail. The slatted bench works both as a bench and as a platform, on which you can make, for example, beautiful flower arrangements. The airy lattice bench can be placed, for example, in the entrance hall, living room, bedroom or even in dressing rooms.

The seat part of Artek's 153A bench is made of solid birch and the legs of the bench are the familiar L-legs. Architect and designer Alvar Aalto started experimenting with bending wood in the late 1920s. He developed a pioneering process in collaboration with furniture manufacturer Otto Korhonen, which resulted in the L-leg. The innovation meant the interruption of long-standing traditions in furniture production. Aalto patented the technology in 1933. Durable and solid furniture could now be made from organic wood material.

Artek - Long-lasting classics

Artek was founded in 1935 to sell and market furniture designed by Alvar Aalto. Artek's founders, Alvar and Aino Aalto, Nils-Gustav Hahl and Maire Gullichsen, published a manifesto written in the spirit of functionalism, according to which Artek's purpose was to "engage in the furniture trade and, through exhibitions and other means, promote modern housing culture."

Artek's original values ​​– durability and high quality combined with a pure design language – are still at the core of the company. Artek's powerhouses Alvar and Aino Aalto created a warm and human style for modern interior design, in which nature was a great source of inspiration. It is the use of natural materials and the tireless search for new technical solutions that have made Artek a company whose values ​​are still relevant today.
