The Assemble Series reimagines outdoor furniture through a focus on material honesty and refined detailing. Made using FSC™-certified (FSC-C028824) teak, its broad planks and softened edges lend a warm, tactile presence to the bench. A subtle seam between the boards allows the wood to breathe and shift naturally with the seasons, while introducing a quiet rhythm to the surface. True to its name, Assemble invites people to gather, connect, and linger—bringing a warm, tactile presence to any outdoor setting. As a natural material, teak will display variations in color and grain from one piece to another. When left untreated, the wood will gradually develop a silver-grey patina. Over time, outdoor exposure may also lead to small cracks at the ends of the planks and slight warping, which can result in minor height differences between them. Direct sunlight may cause temporary color variations if objects are left on the surface for extended periods; these will even out once the object is removed. To maintain a deeper, warmer tone, clear tabletop oil can be applied periodically. The bench is fitted with plastic glides suitable for outdoor use. Maintenance & care: To clean the bench, the surface should be wiped with a cloth dampened with water, following the direction of the wood grain. If needed, a mild detergent or dish soap may be used. Concentrated or abrasive cleaning agents should be avoided, as these may damage the surface. The bench should then be wiped again with a clean damp cloth and dried thoroughly with a soft, dry cloth. Any spills—such as liquids, food, or grease—should be cleaned off immediately to help prevent stains or marks from forming.It is recommended that the teak is cleaned once or twice a year with a dedicated outdoor wood cleaning product to remove algae and accumulated dirt. The instructions on the product should be followed carefully. The teak wood is not sealed or treated. If left untreated, the teak will gradually develop a silver-grey patina. This natural aging process does not affect the bench’s durability or structural integrity. If the teak’s original warm color is preferred, a clear tabletop oil suitable for outdoor use should be applied on a regular basis.
