The company worked with the client to maximise the re-landscape outdoor space with a number of Inspira planter system configurations. The bespoke design features tiered planter beds with integrated cantilever seating that seamlessly run up the steps, bringing welcoming patches of colour to the main entrance.

FGP litter bins and stainless steel Sheffield cycle stands are dotted around the building to offer secure bike parking, and to keep the space clean and tidy. The litter bins have been customised with black stained timber beams to co-ordinate with the building facade. 

As final additions to the external space, 2 large Deacons shelters provide bin storage and covered cycle parking for staff and students. The large shelters feature bespoke black stained timbers to achieve a unified aesthetic with the street furniture and building.
