I wanted something that flipped the notion of things that blur into the background of daily life.
The idea for this bench began from a bad experience of buying a pre-fab entryway bench from a big box store. It came, I put in the screws, then everything came loose and no lock-tite could fix it. So I wanted to make something that would actually survive me sitting on it after a long run. So I built this entryway bench using time tested joinery techniques.
