Context
The Calls is a popular and vibrant waterfront area in Leeds, attracting creative thinking and commercial businesses alike.
Product supplied
Within a small passageway, a cosy urban spot has been created by adding the bright green version of the Boa seat, adding life and colour to what used to be a rather dull, uninteresting space.
Boa is a functionally sculptural piece of furniture for all ages to sit, lie or stand on – whether outdoors or in. Boa can be used in two fundamentally different basic positions (turned 90 degrees), typically set up in groups to create spaces within spaces.
Outcome
This simple but effective Boa installation has transformed what was previously an uninspiring and under utilised space. In addition to introducing a welcome splash of vibrant colour, the welcoming feeling of informality conveyed by Boa has encouraged users to interact with the re-invented space spontaneously and to feel relaxed whilst gathering and lounging in the area.
Feedback
Landscape architect, Yorkshire Design Group, commented: "It’s been a pleasure to do this project, as it has been a simple but successful intervention, using great design in the right place. Ten minutes after we installed them, they were already in use, and have since been happily adopted by the locals and the passers-by."
