Considered one of the founding fathers of American Modernism, George Nelson originally trained as an architect, but over his 50 year career, was involved in several design disciplines. Brilliant and ever forward thinking, he is responsible for many revolutionary concepts, which we now enjoy today, including pedestrian shopping centres in cities, modular storage systems and L shaped desks but to name a few.
This replica Nelson Platform Bench - Medium is a tribute to George Nelson's original design. A functional and versatile piece, it is suitable for seating, as a coffee table or as a bed end amongst other uses. The benchtop is made from solid rubberwood, as are the black lacquered legs. The clean, crisp lines of the solid wood slats, and the contemporary form of the bold legs reflect Nelson's architectural background, and his belief that utility was as important as beauty. The simple design of this stylish and multipurpose bench allows it to blend in seamlessly with any space and complement any home.
Please note that colours may vary slightly to what is pictured here. Variations in colour and grain are due to the natural characteristics of wood, and contribute to the uniqueness of each piece.

| Other | All of our replica pieces have been created to uphold the intent of the original designs, from the premium materials used, to the intricate detailing and handcrafting involved.
