Alternative Materials
As an example how alternative materials can change a design, our Southampton seat was designed in the 1960's however this classic design can be transformed to suit modern play parks, shopping centres and city streets by simply altering the materials chosen.
Smooth concrete in a variety of colours, choice of light or dark wood stain, painted wooden slats or powder coated metal can be used, creating a variety of finishes to suit any application.
