Bespoke RailRoad benches - Haberdashers' Aske's School
The Excelsior Building is a new addition to the impressive Haberdashers' Aske's School campus in Borehamwood, providing a new performance hall, mezzanine cafe, function room and general teaching spaces, together with courtyard improvements and rooftop terraces.
Requirement
The courtyard comprises planted beds, with social spaces and pathways in a mix of resin-bound gravels and synthetic grass surfaces. To allow pupils to enjoy this new outdoor space a seating system was required that was sufficiently flexible to be able to follow the curves and angles of the planting beds.
Products supplied
In total, over 60 linear metres of the Delta version from the RailRoad range was supplied, creating four long curvi-linear seating runs and also some shorter independent straight units, together with nearly 100m2 of purpose-made steel planters, and 30m of timber and steel handrail.
