About our benches
A bench in the hallway provides a practical place to sit while putting on or taking off your shoes and can also become a natural part of the interior. At Essem Design, you will find benches in different sizes and designs, from freestanding models to wall-mounted benches that help save floor space.
The range includes the Nostalgi bench, designed by Roger Persson as part of the Nostalgi family. The bench has a flexible and robust expression and can be extended to suit different spaces. If you want to keep the floor clear, there are also wall-mounted options such as Jaxon and Bench 67, which create a defined seating area without taking up more floor space than necessary.
Bench 68 is a compact freestanding model that works well in the hallway when you want a simple place to sit, for example when putting on shoes. The range also includes Bench 69 and Bench 70, where the seat is combined with a backrest and hooks for added functionality in the entrance area.
Which bench is best depends on the size of the hallway and how the seating will be used. A smaller bench works well in a narrow or compact hallway, while a larger model can provide more seating space and additional functions. A wall-mounted bench can be a good choice when you want to keep the floor free and create a more open impression.
Our benches are designed to combine function, durability and a considered expression. Whether you are looking for a compact hallway bench, a wall-mounted bench or a larger seating solution for the entrance area, you will find options that make the hallway more functional and welcoming.
