U-Series Chair
Ward Bennett's characteristic minimalism and lifelong pursuit of comfort come together in his U-Series Chair. An elegant take on 1940s banquette seating, the universal form of this barrel-shaped chair fits in effortlessly in contemporary interiors. The design is defined by fluid lines, all detailed in piping and a low seat back.

Learn MoreWard Bennett originally created U-Series in 1979 as part of the interior design he did for handbag designer Reva Ostrow's NYC apartment. “Ward was a genius,” she said in an interview years later, “Hiring him was the best thing I’ve ever done in my life.”
Upholstery details
The piping detail that follows the curves of U-Series highlights the skills of Geiger upholsterers, who execute the design flawlessly in a wide range of luxe textiles.
High-resiliency foam seat cushions
Despite being small in scale, U-Series offers relaxing comfort thanks in part to its high-resiliency foam seat cushions.
