M11 Bench

Designed by Thomas E. Alken for FDB Møbler, the M11 Sammen Bench brings the warmth of indoor seating into the garden without feeling precious. It’s built from solid teak with a natural oil finish, left open in structure so air and light pass through easily. The backrest has just enough angle to make sitting feel relaxed, even over a long meal, and the three-seat length makes it a practical choice when you’re hosting more than usual. It pairs cleanly with the dining tables in the Sammen series, but it also holds its own under a tree, against a wall, or along a quiet path—wherever an extra seat might turn into an invitation to stay a little longer.
