About This Workshop
This bench is versatile. It’s a backless bench designed to live indoors or out. It can serve as an entry bench to put on or take off shoes just inside your door. It can do the same outdoors just outside your door. It can sit at the base of a bed for putting on slippers and can be moved the living room to elegantly seat guests at an indoor party or dinner or live on a porch, deck, or garden in the summer. Students pick a size that fits. The 18” wide bench can be built in size from 42 inches to 96 inches in length. Students choose from 3 different designs: Greene & Greene inspired Medina series, the mid-century Leschi series or the Modern E series; and even a special 54” curved design. All designs feature outdoor worthy materials, joinery and construction plus a shelf underneath for storing items.
