Ø Small Bench by Plus Halle was designed by Kilo Design — a Danish design studio whose work for Plus Halle explores the formal and spatial possibilities of circular geometry applied to public and contract seating. The Ø Small is the compact format in the Ø bench family, a series of circular and curved seating pieces in which the name — the Danish letter Ø, meaning "island" — describes both the geometric character and the spatial concept: a self-contained seating island that defines and activates the zone it occupies. The Ø Small's compact circular footprint makes it spatially efficient and highly versatile, suited to a wide range of interior positions where a larger circular bench would be disproportionate.
The Ø Small Bench's circular or curved form creates a seating piece that has no front or back — it can be approached and used from any direction, making it inherently flexible in open-plan environments where users arrive from multiple directions. This omnidirectional quality is a practical advantage in cultural institution foyers, retail interiors, transport hub concourses, hotel lobby areas and corporate social spaces where the bench must serve users arriving from unpredictable directions without a fixed spatial orientation. The compact scale of the Ø Small makes it appropriate in contexts where the full-size Ø would consume too much floor area or feel visually heavy.
Interior designers and architects specifying the Ø Small Bench for public, commercial and hospitality environments will find the DWG drawing and CAD block useful for furniture placement and circulation clearance documentation. The 3D model supports BIM-accurate spatial coordination in public-space and commercial project models. A spatially intelligent and formally distinctive bench specification for any interior project requiring compact, omnidirectional public seating with a considered circular design character.
Available as a 2D DWG drawing and 3D model.
