Petervary Smart Piano Bench

Petervary Smart Piano Bench has a new approach designing a product which can revolutionise the way people play and learn to play the piano. The upper part of the bench can slide sideways, allowing the artist to better reach the keys on the far ends of the piano while maintaining optimal body posture. The other key feature of the product is the motorised height setup. Artists, teachers and students can set their preferred height with ease whilst sitting on the bench or they can set their personal height profile on an NFC tag or use the mobile app for automatic adjustment.



Piano benches are supportive objects to the piano, however they often do not claim this position. We intended to change this by designing a piano bench that stands proudly next to the highest quality grand pianos, and that is a worthy pair of the piano with its subtle, elegant and functional design.



The key focus for the design was to find the right balance between high-tech and classical style. The Petervary Smart Piano Bench itself is a revolutionary, technical product, however the design had to fit into the style of classical music and looks neat next to a grand piano. Therefore, the greatest source of inspiration were the fine and functional details and form language of grand pianos.
