The Artek 168B bench desiredly expands Aalto's beloved bench collection. The fixed-top, 150 cm long bench is a lightweight and versatile piece of furniture for homes and public spaces. The Artek 168B bench showcases Aalto's familiar characteristics, from rounded corners to patented L-legs. This Finnish design classic is a beautiful and timeless piece of furniture for any space and for many different uses. 

Alvar Aalto's 168B benches make extensive use of the ingenious L-leg. The 168B bench is available with a birch veneer or upholstered top. The L-leg, introduced as early as 1933, is one of the most essential components of Aalto's furniture – Aalto himself considered its development his greatest achievement.

The new brown/white colour option gives the Zebra pattern a warmer and softer look while retaining its recognisable graphic quality. The more subdued contrast makes the fabric easy to combine with various interiors, and the earthy tones highlight the timeless nature of the Zebra pattern. Globally renowned, Zebra remains one of Artek's most beloved patterns.

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.
