BAENK Bench With Extras

This cool little bench, called Baenk (which simply means bench in Danish) is made of beautifully crafted oak wood and comes with an upholstered seat. The hole can be used to hold umbrellas or to place a small plant, and the other side is carved out, creating a small tray. It’s a perfect item for your Nordic style hallway – if you are willing to pay the price of about $1400.

It was designed by Studio NUR, a young Danish brand founded by architect Maja Bøgh Vindbjerg, and is produced by the Danish furniture company WOUD.
