THE BRIEF
Outdoor street furniture solutions
Coombe Wood School is a comprehensive, mixed secondary school for children aged between 11 and 18 in Croydon. We worked with Wates on this £30 million project to provide a range of street furniture products to complement the newly landscaped areas.
We manufactured a whole host of our own range of products here. The Timber cycle shelter was created in a way that covers two runs of cycle hoops under one roof, this allows for more bikes to be covered which acts as a fantastic incentive to get kids cycling to school.
WHAT WE DID
Striking central courtyard feature
For the courtyard area, Langley Design provided a large timber pergola to add a striking central structure to the outside space where the children can congregate under to socialise, play, eat and learn. Our recycled plastic plinth mounted benches were chosen due to the longevity of the material.
THE RESULT
Low maintenance products
The recycled plastic requires no maintenance and will continue to look as good as new in many years to come. It will last the lifetime of the project.
Both the school and contractor were so pleased with our products that they have ordered another cycle shelter due for installation later this year.
