Outdoor Joinery — Benches & Table
For a community garden at the Garden Museum in London, we designed and produced a set of outdoor benches and a table. The pieces were conceived as simple, robust elements suited to shared public use, encouraging gathering, rest, and informal activities within the garden setting.
The design emphasises durability, ease of maintenance, and material reuse, with a straightforward construction that highlights the natural character of the timber while ensuring longevity in an outdoor environment.
