Know before you buy
Unlike a traditional rigid bench, the Softbench features a specialized foam construction that molds to your body. While it looks firm and architectural when empty, it provides a unique, sponge-like give the moment you sit down.
Yes, its minimal silhouette and sturdy construction make it highly versatile. It functions effectively as a low-profile end table or a standalone accent piece in addition to being a comfortable seat.
No, the Softbench arrives fully assembled and ready for use. You can place it directly into your space without needing any tools.
The matte lacquer finish is durable and designed for daily use. We recommend wiping it down with a soft, slightly damp cloth to remove dust, avoiding abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that could compromise the finish.
The checkered pattern is an integral part of the design, adding a geometric, textured visual element to the piece. It enhances the modern aesthetic while maintaining the bench's clean, minimal silhouette.
