Public Spaces were approached by the procurement team in Cleary Doyle to come up with an all-round solution to the seating elements in The Campus Cherrywood, it had to be versatile yet with a robust and elegant style while adhering to strict budgets and production timelines.

Public Spaces recommended the Traves, a design by our partners Larus Design of Portugal. A red dot award winner on several occasions for some of their designs.   The Trave range was the perfect solution it incorporated all the right materials and style the team in Murray & Associates were looking to achieve, working with the team in Larus Design we were able to modify the Trave bench to fit several difficult areas where seating was required.

Amongst those areas were a podium viewing platform/seating area. We designed a wall mounted version which then was modified in lengths and widths to suit a variety of areas in the campus so that Cleary Doyle’s could incorporate even more seating in the area not just in the courtyards and grassed areas but along the retaining walls. We even added, where needed backrests of varying lengths for extra comfort.  For the large open eating areas, we modified the Trave to be used as picnic tables with matching seating, this combination was an extra addition and working with Murray & Associates we finalised the design and got production underway. This gave the local restaurants and Cafes a wonderful area for customers to sit and take in the surroundings while proving functional and hard wearing.

Public spaces are proud of the versatility and quality of all our partners and will continue to bring outstanding design and new methods and materials to our customers both old and new……
