The Parker 1.0 Bench is a sleek, modernist bench with a crisp upholstered cushion set atop a polished stainless steel frame. Slim, straight legs and a minimal frame give it a floating, gallery-like presence, and the bright polished steel catches light in lobbies and corridors. The tailored rectangular seat keeps the look clean and architectural.
At 37" wide, the Parker 1.0 works as a waiting-area seat, an end-of-bed bench in guest suites or a perch in a lobby or gallery wall. Upholster it in fabric, leather or COL to match surrounding lounge seating, or use a bold leather to make it a focal point. It is also offered as the Parker 1.5 Bench in a different length, so you can scale the same look across a project.
The Parker's stainless steel frame is welded, not bolted, for lasting rigidity. It is tested to 400 lbs and tested internally to meet ANSI/BIFMA standards, and its foam and upholstery meet CAL TB 117-2013. It ships fully assembled and carries our 3-year frame structural warranty and 1-year finish and upholstery warranty from shipment.
Leave clear walkways around benches in lobbies and corridors. Our seating layout guide covers clearances and aisle widths.
