A timeless design that’s still ahead of the curve

U-Series

Ward Bennett originally designed his U-Series Chair in 1979 for renowned handbag designer Reva Ostrow’s NYC apartment. Today, these timeless chairs are available as the U-Series Lounge Seating family, along with a matching settee and sofa. All U-Series pieces come in a wide selection of upholstery textiles, including two-tone options. Casters are available on U-Series Chairs.

The Test of Time

The sculptural form of each U-Series piece is as relevant today as it was 40 years ago when they were first introduced.

Embrace the Curves

The comfortable curves of the U-Series Lounge Seating family highlight the wide range of luxe textiles.

Mixing Business with Pleasure

The U-Series was originally designed for residential use, but its blend of elegance and sophistication also helps hospitality and commercial spaces make a memorable first impression.

"In life and design, try to pull it all down to a minimum."
