Herman Miller® PB - Nelson™ Platform Bench
Part of the George Nelson collection (View full George Nelson collection)

Designed by George Nelson
The Nelson platform bench is a multipurpose resting place for people and their things. With its simple, sparse lines, the bench is also a striking accent - a piece of art in itself that has become a sought-after collector's item for use in a living room, vestibule, bedroom, library, office, or public area.

It’s whatever you need it to be—a platform for displaying artwork or plants, a bench for seating, or a low table for magazines, a bowl of candy, a TV, or a CD player. With a solid maple top, the bench is available in three sizes.

THE DESIGN | FEATURES AT A GLANCE | DIMENSIONS | WHY BUY FROM US?

The Design:

Introduced in 1946 the Nelson platform bench was part of George Nelson's first collection for Herman Miller and still stands as a benchmark of modern design. Like much of Nelson's work, the platform bench has clean, rectilinear lines, reflecting his architectural background and his insistence on what he calls "honest" design--that is, making an honest visual statement about an object's purpose.
As presented in the 1948 Herman Miller furniture catalog, the platform bench "is primarily a high base for deep and shallow cases, but it also serves as a low table for extra seating." The 1955 catalog states that the bench "has proved to be one of the most flexible and useful units in the collection." The bench was reintroduced in 1994.
