Museum Bench
The Museum Bench – where durability meets timeless design, was created by Modernica Studio in 2004 and showcased in the Pasadena Museum of California Art Biennial Exhibition. This bench is a testament to exceptional craftsmanship and engineering.
The supporting structure is crafted from solid block aluminum, machined, then anodized. The high-quality solid wood slats of sapele, hard-rock maple, or walnut, are available in lengths from two to twelve feet, with benches ten feet or longer, requiring an extra center leg. Standard height is 14”, and it is also available at a height of 16.5”.
The sapele version is ideal for outdoor use, making it a stylish addition to saunas, showers, or spa areas. Elevate any space with the Case Study Museum Bench – the epitome of durability and design excellence.

Twelve hardwood slats.
Each individually spaced to give the bench its characteristic rhythm while keeping the overall form light and open. Oiled to draw out the natural grain, the finish protects without concealing, allowing the wood to develop character over time. Available in lengths from 2 to 12 feet, it is a bench that scales to any space without losing its composure.
Solid block machined aluminum structure.
Available in a natural anodized or Onyx Black finish, the anodizing process hardens the surface at the molecular level, ensuring the base ages as gracefully as the wood above it. Offered in two seat heights, 14” and 16.5”, to suit the needs of any space.

Our solid wood pieces are offered in maple, walnut, sapele, redwood, acacia, or teak, with the selection specific to each design. Maple and walnut carry a classic, even grain, suited to indoor use, while sapele, redwood, acacia, and teak each bring their own character and weather resistance, suited to outdoor use. Every piece is FSC-certified and built by hand in our Los Angeles factory, to one standard of craftsmanship.
