The result of a collaboration between Brad Ascalon and Snøhetta for the Joslyn Art Museum expansion project, the Omaha bench was developed to meet 3 distinct requirements. The bench had to possess a timeless form well-suited to the Joslyn Art Museum's diverse range of environments. It needed to be an uncompromising contemporary design itself. And it had to be comfortable and supportive for longer sits to linger and reflect. The resulting bench is now available in 5 standard sizes including 2 depths to support single or double-sided seating in a range of applications. Group together for longer runs. Bases made of solid ash or walnut provide a robust foundation for tailored upholstery in your choice of fabric or leather.
