standard unit 200 console
Design Niels Bendtsen, 2014
Steel, wood veneer
Made in Italy by Bensen
A console with two drawers, a center flip down door and a platform base. A supporting fin separates the base from the body and makes for flexible storage with a weightless appearance. Cable management and considerable open storage space makes the Standard console well suited for media components. Standard is offered in a variety of wood veneers.
Solid wood edging and a mitred top edge allow for a sleek handle detail for the center door while the side drawers are opened from below and feature soft close hardware. The face of the unit is made of a single veneered panel ensuring pattern matching. The supporting fin is produced from steel plate then finished in a heat-cured black textured paint. Each base comes with imbedded levellers allowing for a perfect fit on any floor. Some assembly may be required.

Niels Bendtsen
Bendtsen gained valuable skills and a respect for hand-built traditions as an apprentice, and was intrigued by new technologies. Between 1963 and 1972, Bendtsen had his own retail store where he sold imported Scandinavian designs. He designed small items for the store, but it wasn't until he was in his early thirties that he truly began designing furniture.
The Bensen philosophy balances simplicity and honesty. Designer Niels Bendtsen trained as an apprentice with his father building Scandinavian furniture and gained skills & respect for hand built traditions.
