Modular and multifunctional
Bench seating has been installed into Wembley Park, London, to create a striking sculptural centrepiece for their Market Square.
Wembley Park is situated just a stone’s throw from the world-famous Wembley stadium and is fast becoming known as ‘London’s new creative district.’ The park includes London Designer Outlet which offers over 50 brands offering up to 70% discounts; the centre also offers over 20 restaurants and a wide selection of bars.
“To add a touch of drama to the design it was decided to make the seating multi-use. The team at GeoMet were very flexible as I had a unique design I needed them to make. We needed to create a ‘W’ and ‘P’ for Wembley Park which could be used for various events at the arena. A series of ‘L’ shaped benches were created to be placed in the market square and to be re-modulated for use at the arena for other events.
The majority of the time the benches sit around green spaces in the market square to give the community somewhere to rest, whilst also adding a striking centrepiece to the urban landscape, but when required can be easily moved to the Arena for multiple uses. The design has worked perfectly, and my client, Quintain, are incredibly pleased with the end result.”
