AL by Bene shaken not stirred
The cool understatement fits the scene perfectly. Bond receives his new MI6 assignment from M and by chance finds himself in an office made by Bene.Expectations are high – the 22nd Bond adventure "Quantum of Solace" will be released at cinemas in November 2008, and in all the previews Daniel Craig is trying hard to top the success of the last film.
The new blockbuster directed by Marc Foster was the perfect product placement opportunity for Bene. The AL furniture by Bene plays a supporting role in Tanner’s office at the MI6 headquarters and Dame Judi Dench – alias M – plays the convincingly tough intelligence lady. The AL office furniture radiates intelligence and integrity – properties that one would associate with the unfaltering Dame. The AL stands for aluminium and conveys lightness, functionality, mobility and hi-tech – an image that goes fantastically with any Bond film.
