Project details:
As part of the Lincoln High Street improvement scheme Lincolnshire County Council required seating with a significant visual presence to be used as part of traffic-calming measures as well as providing useful short term seating for shoppers. Furnitubes’ in-house designers developed a unique circular bench for the scheme. Manufactured in two sizes - to suit the available space and for visual variation - the steelwork was supplied in a hardwearing corten effect nylon coating, with the iroko hardwood slats in a finish coat to maintain good long term colouration. Overall the scheme has provided this section of Lincoln High Street with a new lease of life, making the area more attractive to shoppers and giving local businesses a boost. Following positive feedback of the Lincoln installation, a complete new range - named Axl - has since been developed to offer circular benches in three different sizes and four different forms.
