Based on the original design by Casika Modern, this bench is made from 3/4″ Baltic Birch Plywood and 1/2″ aluminum bar stock. The plywood was ripped into strips and laminated together to turn the plywood end-grain into the face, and plywood face into the edges.

It comprises 3 separate pieces: Two leg assemblies and a bench-top. The leg assemblies are U-shaped, with two aluminum rods pinned through corresponding holes on the top of each side which support the bench-top. The benchtop has semi-circular grooves routed out on the bottom which receive the aluminum rods. In a small departure from the original design, a thin layer of rubber was added to the grooves to help grip the aluminum rods.

Dimensions: 52″w x 16″d x 20″h
