When I visited Munich last year, it was a given that we make our way to the Beer Garden. The experience was so much fun, I'm not surprised that the Franzl Table and Bench was inspired by it.
Designed by Sebastian Schneider, the Franzl Table and Bench takes its cues from traditional German beer tables and benches. Exhibiting the same communal feeling and freedom that is shared over a good ol' pint, it also conveniently folds up for easy storage.
