The 'A-Part' bench has been designed by Loukas Chondros as a furniture solution for the new normal that would provide people with a way to get back to socializing in a safe manner during the ongoing pandemic. The bench features two seating sections that are separated from one another with a slatted middle portion to help sitters engage in conversation without being too close to one another. This identifies what could be done in the new normal to help individuals get back to essential socializing in a way that respects public health protocols.
The 'A-Part' bench is suitable for use in the age of social distancing, but will also allow the slats to be repositioned in the future to create a new look.
