Palissade Park Dining Bench / Story
Designed by French duo Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec, the Palissade Park Dining Bench is a modular bench designed for outdoor use. The curved frame comes in two variants, which are designed to curve in two different directions, enabling the benches to be inward facing, outward facing, or a combination of the two. When connecting a minimum of two benches, customised seating arrangements can be created in layouts such as circles, waves and arcs. The elegant design is united by the same symmetrical geometry and graphic idiom as the rest of the Palissade series, engineered to reproduce the same visual simplicity that allows it to integrate effortlessly into a natural landscape or urban setting. Specifically designed for outdoor use, the powder-coated steel has a protective outdoor primer for optimal durability and resilience, which makes it last for a longer period of time. Available in selected colours, the Park Dining Bench is ideal for creating unique seating configurations in gardens, parks and public spaces
