This divine project has really caught the eye across the relevant awarding bodies across the North East. Tilbury Douglas (formerly known as Interserve) were the proud main contractors on the £80m development at Durham University offering accommodation for 1,000 students. This project was shortlisted for Education Project of the year and has also been shortlisted at the Constructing Excellence North East awards in the Digital Construction and Offsite Project of the Year categories, Interserve Construction has also been shortlisted as Contractor of the Year for its work on the project.
Langley Design love to be involved in any projects, big or small but we especially like to be involved in schemes that get the
recognition they deserve across the country. We were proud to be chosen by Tilbury Douglas to manufacture and install a wide
range of street furniture products on this one. Our market leading timber enclosed cycle and bin stores (often copied but never
bettered) were a key part of the project in providing a wide range of cycle parking and also bin storage for the site. By keeping
these units consistent across the landscape it allows an incredible aesthetic across the site whilst providing purpose built high
quality structures that will easily withstand the challenging climate the UK offers. We also provided a smaller open cycle shelter
unit for visitors to enjoy.
We also offer a wide range of handmade external furniture products and we made a mixture of benching products for this site.
We manufactured some beautiful Galvanised and Powdercoated benches (with litter bins to match) and also some grey granite
plinth mounted versions. The mixture in lengths really add to t he project by allowing some individual reflection time on the smaller benches and then group activities and socialising on the larger ones. We completed the scheme with some pre cast concrete cubes and stainless steel removable bollards.
