Scandinavian benches: Elegant functionality and minimalist design

Scandinavian benches stand out for their sleek design and versatility, bringing a touch of functional simplicity to any space. Perfect for adding extra seating without taking up too much space, these benches combine minimalist aesthetics with practical utility, ideal for hallways, living rooms or dining areas. This article explores the different models, styles and materials used, as well as the specifics of the Swedish bench, an emblematic element of Scandinavian furniture.

Scandinavian bench design and style

Clean lines and robust construction: Scandinavian benches are characterised by straight lines and a no-frills design, highlighting the quality of the materials and the finesse of the workmanship.
Minimalist aesthetics: Minimalist design is not just about looks but also functionality, with benches designed to blend harmoniously into a variety of settings while offering effective seating solutions.

Scandinavian seating bench materials and colour palette

Natural wood: Oak, pine and birch are frequently used for their durability and warm appearance. These woods are often left in their natural colour or lightly stained to preserve and enhance their natural beauty.
Metal: Sometimes incorporated into frames or legs for a modern touch, metal reinforces the structure while providing an aesthetic contrast with the wood.
Neutral colours: Shades of white, grey and different shades of wood dominate, reflecting natural light and creating a calm, welcoming atmosphere.

The Swedish Bench

The “Swedish bench” is a specific type of Scandinavian bench, renowned for its simple, multifunctional design. Traditionally used in Swedish kitchens, this bench offers not only additional seating but also integrated storage options, such as drawers or compartments under the seat. What sets the Swedish bench apart is its ability to effectively combine aesthetics with practical utility, making it ideal for small spaces that benefit from versatile furniture.

Variety of models and sizes

Scandinavian benches are available in a variety of configurations to meet a wide range of needs:

Backless benches: Popular for their versatility, these benches can be used in entranceways for putting on shoes, around a dining table, or even as a decorative element in a living room.
Benches with Backs: Offering more support and comfort, these benches are often placed against walls or used as chair substitutes in casual dining areas.
Storage benches: These models incorporate compartments or drawers under the seat, perfect for maximising storage space in areas such as the hallway or bedroom.
