Bench for Two

Bench for Two unites the sculptural with the functional in a poetic piece designed by Nanna Ditzel in 1989. With its soft curve and centre angle, the bench creates a shared space for two—where eye contact happens naturally and conversation unfolds. Crafted in solid beech and veneer, the piece features a graphic pattern on the backrest and a single red dot at the centre, adding rhythm and lightness to the form. A refined expression where aesthetics and technique merge—precise, curious, and full of life.

Meet the designer

Known as “Grand dame of Danish design”, Nanna Ditzel (1923-2005), with her postmodernist attitude and rebellion against tradition, became a leading figure in the renewal of Danish design in the 1990s, well after her 70th birthday.

Ditzel was not only strikingly ambitious but progressive and forward-looking for her time. Highly occupied with our ways of sitting, she believed comfortable furniture paved the way for new ways of thinking and living, having an incredible ability to transform an artistic thought into highly functional and usable furniture.
