Street furniture, designed by engineers.

Designed and manufactured in Australia.

About

Designed and manufactured in Australia, built to be sat on for 20 years.

Street furniture designed by engineers, and detailed for the people who use it. When we design a bin, we think of the people who need to empty it. When we design a seat, we think of the people who sit on it and the people who maintain it. Our furniture does not just look good. It is functional, and it lasts the test of time.

The range is deliberately small. Every piece in it earns its place by being the honest answer to a common problem, and every one can be cut, extended, radiused or refinished to suit the site rather than the catalogue.

Method

One party, responsible
for all of it.

We start from your drawing, or from the problem if there is no drawing yet. Concepts, options and samples before anything is committed. Then the engineering, the manufacture and the installation, all from the same people.

Drawing to footpath

Design, engineering, manufacture and installation from one party.

Engineer (01)

Structural certification, wind loading, footings and shop drawings. Ed is a structural engineer, so this is the first conversation, not the last.

How we work
Powder-coated steel frames hanging out of a curing oven

Manufacture (02)

Steel fabrication, timber, and finishing to an architectural standard. Prototype approved before the run.

Install (03)

Site measure, setout and installation by our own crew, working inside your programme and your traffic control.

Projects
Materials

The frame stays quiet so the coating can be loud.

Colour is the one thing we do not decide for you. Every item is quoted in the colour on your schedule.

The radius nobody will cut, the shelter that has to clear an awning, the seat that has to follow a wall. Send the drawing and we will come back with what it costs, what it weighs and how long it takes.
