Utzon(s) Bench

Designer Lin Utzon, Mika Utzon Popov & Matt Lorrain

Based on an original sofa designed by architect Jørn Utzon for his family home and created in collaboration with the Utzon family, this outdoor furniture collection communicates a deliberate design language through clear shapes, timeless materiality and architecturally inspired details. A smaller format interpretation of the dining table – with a fine-sanded, solid natural teak base – the dining bench combines a bullnose profile, butterflied legs and deliberately visible stainless-steel fittings to create a sense of timelessness and floating ease.

We collaborate with architects, designers, landscapers, builders, and homeowners.
