Hannes & Fritz’s Weekday Bench was inspired by their impromptu solution to a lack of seating at a dinner party. Retaining the original idea of bringing people together, the Weekday Bench combines a solid, robust presence with softly rounded joints, conveying a sense of warmth and familiarity that invites shared dining and a social atmosphere. Featuring the same simple construction as the classic picnic bench, it is made in strong, durable pine planks that will patinate beautifully and last for many years to come. The Weekday Bench’s strong yet universally appealing character combined with its water-based, weather-resistant surface treatment makes it suitable for both inside and outside use in a wide range of settings, from cafés and public parks to private or shared gardens. Available in different sizes in solid pine in a variety of finishes and colours. The benches can also be supplemented with seat cushions in selected textiles for extra comfort.
Available in 3 sizes:
Model 1: 111W x 23D x 45H cm
Model 2: 140W x 23D x 45H cm
Model 3: 190W x 23D x 45H cm
Established in 1997, Cult (formerly Corporate Culture) formed to provide not only exceptional designer furniture, but also a high level of customer service, a combination not yet experienced in the Australian marketplace.
In his endeavours since then, company founder and director Richard Munao has built one of the most comprehensive collections of brand partners in Australia and New Zealand. Cult has grown from its first location in Sydney to now include showrooms in Melbourne, Brisbane and Auckland as well as distributors in Canberra, Adelaide and Perth.
In addition to founding Cult, and supporting strong international partners like Fritz Hansen, Carl Hansen & Son, &Tradition, HAY and Gubi, Richard is actively involved in discovering and mentoring emerging Australian and New Zealand design talent. As founder of Cult’s Design Journey Competition, which began in 2004, Richard gives designers throughout Australia and New Zealand the opportunity to have their designs prototyped and put into production.
