bench concept - model 1
Furniture in the garden is very important and is often overlooked. Carefully placed, a seat, bench or covered space offers refuge, and if you are an avid gardener like myself, a place to stop working and reflect. It is usually difficult to source quality furnishings that will work in our coastal context, which is why designing my own seemed obvious. I am currently working with local craftsmen to create the first prototype.materials:
-reclaimed oak seat slats
-ductal arches
Ductal is a revolutionary, ultra-high performance material that provides strength, ductility, durability and aesthetic flexibility.

Beauitful piece that would add to any garden without taking away from its natural beauty which is the most important.
