Lilium is a bench designed by BIG — Bjarke Ingels Group — for Fritz Hansen as part of an outdoor furniture series conceived for durability, versatility, and a contemporary design sensibility. The series is constructed in solid teak, a material chosen for its proven performance in exterior conditions and its warm tonal character, making the Lilium as suitable for interior use as for outdoor settings.

The bench's form is clean and horizontally resolved, consistent with BIG's architectural approach to design — an interest in simplicity of form achieved through careful attention to proportion and material quality rather than decorative elaboration. Its versatility as both an indoor and outdoor piece reflects a design intent that resists the conventional separation between furniture categories, making the Lilium a practical and visually consistent choice across a range of settings.

The Lilium bench is well suited to garden spaces, covered terraces, and outdoor event settings, as well as entrance halls, reception areas, and public interior spaces where a durable, design-led bench is required. Its long-lasting teak construction makes it particularly appropriate for settings where low maintenance and longevity are priorities alongside design quality.

The series' teak construction develops a natural silver-grey patina with outdoor exposure, adding a further dimension of material character to the design over time.

Available as a 2D DWG drawing and 3D model.
